About the host
Hosted by Andree Talmadge
My husband and I love our OKI home, the food in the area, our friendly neighbors, and the beach. Our home was utilized for short-term rentals in the past under a property manager and everyone loved it- 4.9⭐️. This is not a full-time rental property. We are only renting sporadically to keep the home well maintained and available for our family to enjoy.
Why they chose this property
Our home sits 4 houses away from yacht and the intercostal and is surrounded by trees. This is a quiet neighborhood with wonderful neighbors.
What makes this property unique
We love the big screened in front porch, outdoor shower, relaxing under the house, and the open living area for family to play games and enjoy time together. We are also 1 block away from the walkway to the beach that goes through a nature area with a beautiful marsh- check it out at sunset 🌅.
