The house was exactly what we were expecting. Great location, very well stocked with necessities, neat and clean. It’s very well taken care of. This is the first time we stayed in a house in island park that’s next to the water, very relaxing and we loved the turtles! Communication was very easy and appreciated as well! We will be staying again soon hopefully!
