Great Stay on Drakes Island

We enjoyed our stay! The house was clean, comfy, well stocked and easily accessible to the beach. The backyard was great for grilling and ample space for the kids to play. I would definitely stay there again!

Totally Relaxed at Drakes Island

We were thrilled to find this property that would accept our mini schnauzer and our adult daughter's Maltese so we could have a get away reconnecting and being together at Drakes Island where we used to vacation when she was small.

Vieille maison, bien située près de la plage

. L’annonce en français de VRBO ne disait pas d’apporter les draps, nous n’en avions pas apportés et nous étions 10 personnes. Le propriétaire nous a gentiment dépanné et nous a fourni ses propres draps.

The listing did in fact say to provide your own sheets but after receiving a call late in the evening we were able to help out as we want our guests to have the most relaxing experience possible.
