Everything you need plus an unmatched view

The property, run by very nice people, has everything you need and plenty of room to spread out. The highlight though, is the simply spectacular view from the back deck and living room. A free public kayak/boat launch is 30 seconds away.

Very scenic and beautiful,

The river was beautiful with all the birds, we were greeted with about 100 birds singing and flying around the unit, The sound of all the birds were so mesmerizing. We loved all the views and the palm tree with google eyes.
