This home was exactly as pictured and just what we expected. The fenced backyard was very convenient and the kitchen and living area very spacious. It was fun to discover the small pier near the home that went to the bay with lots of fiddler crabs and birds.

This was a nice home close to the waterway, which had beautiful sunsets. The walk to the beach took about 15 minutes with our little dog, who had to sniff everything on the way... The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The big TV in the great room was perfect for movies and sports. The bed in the master bedroom was comfy. Would recommend this to small families with pets.

We were honored that you chose to share our happy place and found the quiet refreshing. With a half mile to beach access and only one mile to the pier, a leisurely walk or quick drive provides easy access. Our wonderful neighbors are another plus.

Everything was good. There just a few things. All of the TV's were smart TV's and we didn't know how to get the normal TV stations. Also, the people before us never took out the trash can so it was very full when we set it out. Another then those little things the place was nice and peaceful
