This is a beautiful property on the canal in Jamaica Beach. It suited all our needs. We were able to easily launch our boat and use the house’s boat slip while we were there. The covered balcony was perfect for enjoying the day. It rain some during our stay and the covering kept us dry. The house accommodated my family of 6. We each had our own space/room and the beds were comfortable. We will be staying at The Bent Rod again!
