We had a great time here! The kids loved the pool, and the adults really enjoyed the hot tub. We appreciated all the starter essentials provided, including toilet paper, dish soap, and plenty of towels. The place was spotless!! Check-in was a breeze, and the views from both the living room and deck were beautiful. We caught so many fish — even a stingray! Our only complaint was that the Blackstone grill was too rusty to use for cooking. We understand that upkeep can be challenging in coastal areas, so we’d recommend adding a traditional grill as an alternative.

We had a great spring break trip with the family. The House and Pool were a hit along with the access to fishing from the dock. Clean home, beautiful views! We will definitely be back!
