My friends and I have been staying here for years and always look forward to coming back. House and furnishing are great and comfortable, fishing from dock is always enjoyable, beds are comfortable, screened in deck is fabulous, kitchen is furnished well with 3 full bathrooms. Elevator is a wonderful convenience that is worth its weight in gold. Looking forward to our next spring fishing trip to Panacea so we can stay at this wonderful location!!!

Great Place on the water

This is a great house for entertaining and bringing the boat. There is easy access to the bay and local waters. The kids loved the sandy beach and fishing from the dock.

We had an incredible time at this rental! Between the breathtaking views, and the beautiful weather, we couldn’t have asked for a better setting. On top of that, the people were so kind and showed us such great hospitality in the area.We had a great workout, going up and down three flights of stairs. The working elevator did come in handy.The host was very responsive very kind. Looking forward to going back.
