Awesome rental, one of our best yet. We had all the supplies we needed in the house including great cookware. That is a huge plus. We loved the screened in porch, which captured the morning sun, so relaxing. You don't need to pack much, this place has it all.

I don’t want to tell everyone what a great place this is and how much we enjoyed our stay because then everyone will want to stay here. Could not have asked for anything better, more honey and fantastic communication with the host.

This was a perfect home away from home to relax in at the end of a busy day on the water. The homeowner was so sweet to let us know that the home was available to check in early if we wanted to. She let us know she was close by if we needed anything, and to not hesitate to contact her. Hope to return again in the future!

Staycation

Holiday weekend with friends. The downtime was much needed by everyone. Enjoyed the fishing, coming back for lunch and a little rest, then back out to fish a little more. Only suggestion would be to have some mixing bowls and baking dishes. There are only a couple of places to eat on island, so more kitchen ware would make cooking in easier.

Clean as a whistle

Clean as you could ever want. Water pressure, AC amazing. Screened in porch a bonus bc lots of mosquitoes at dusk and dawn. Kitchen had everything we needed. Nice family room kitchen space to hang out. Very quiet neighborhood like area. However, Communication could be much better from the mgmt company. The local people we were put in contact with were great, just not the rental company
