Truly enjoying your beautiful home here. It is so light, airy, and clean. Today we braved taking out the kayak. Had a great time with it. Thanks. The river is so crystal clear. Lots of things to do here. We are really busy doing biking, fair, air boat ride, etc. Taking the tips you sent re the beaches and surrounding area

Hello again Hudsons! I just wanted to take a minute to thank you again for sharing your beautiful home with us! e had a TERRIFIC week! We loved everything about your home! Especially the kayak! Very nice boat! We used it twice in traveling thru the canals to my father-in-laws! Was a lot of fun! We would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to stay at your home again in the future- hopefully the reunion will be there again next year. I will keep your email handy so that I may contact you once it has been decided. Thanks again for adding the second bed in the "kids" bedroom, but they are quite young and were a little apprehensive about staying "alone" in a foriegn place, so they shared the big bed.

I hope that everybody who rents our house in the future will enjoy it as much as we do. It is our piece of paradise, that one day we hope to call home permanently - but until then.....enjoy!
