This property is absolutely gorgeous and a perfect place for my bridesmaids and I to relax at before my wedding. It was within walking distance of Fishcamp and Shellring Ale Works, both of which we walked to and enjoyed! Would love to be able to come back

We only stayed 2 nights for our grandson’s Marine boot camp graduation. The loved home it was as pictured in the listing. They only provided one towel per person and one washcloth per bathroom. The kitchen had one towel and no potholders which we could have used. Home was very convenient to the base and if ever need to stay again I definitely would stay here again and have referred this rental to others.

The home was not only immaculate but also decorated with a high end farmhouse style. From the second I walked in I felt like I was transported into the featured home of an architectural magazine. The owner was clear in communication and was thoughtful in everything that was included for the visit. The surrounding neighborhood was beautiful and walkable through extra hot in July. Overall this place is a perfect haven and was a gift to experience. I would give a hundred stars if I could.

Our "happy place"

We had a wonderful time. The house was in a perfect location for us and tastefully decorated. It was within walking distance to the cypress wetlands, the sands beach and boardwalk. Must go to Maynards for donuts and ice cream!
