Family vacation

We enjoyed the heck out of crabbing. Watching the boats are fun to me. We had neighbors show up friday evening and had some great conversations. Not far from McNeese and the mall. Private but close enough to run for dinner in town.

Quiet and Relaxing

Location is relaxing and quiet. Constant breeze with great views. Great place on the water. 5 minutes from boat launch. Only downfall is not being able to utilize the attached boat stalls.
