Lisbeth and Adam were just the friendliest hosts that we've ever experienced! Everything we needed we had or asked for and gotten. They even left snacks, breakfast foods and drinks to start us off! Home is very cozy although small. But adequate for me and hubby! We stayed for a week and just mostly relaxed! Just to mention there are steps to get into the home. Both pictures were taken from the deck.at the house. Best places for dinner were the Dockside Seafood and Grill restaurant and Jalapeño Heaven. We also did the Thimble Island Tour..it was beautiful!! We swam in the pool 2 days and used the swings....AWESOME TRIP!! Would definitely go there again!!
