Nice little spot to relax and fish. The owners are very friendly. Ms. Anita and Mr. Larry are the sweetest, kindest people you'll ever meet. They Definitely made us feel welcome and we felt at home. We will definitely be back.

We absolutely ADORED the property! Anita was the best host! She made us feel so loved and even offered to take us out on their boat AND bring us some watermelon! It’s pretty close quarters but it was perfect for our weekend getaway with friends! Will 100% come back! We had a blast!
