Excellent location - clean, quiet, well-kept community. Boat launch was key for us. Pool and beach looked very nice, but we didn't use. The unit is as described and has a nice patio out back that we used every day.
Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2026
Response from VrboOwner on 24 Feb 2026
Wonderful guests! Communication was smooth and easy throughout their stay. They took great care of the property and left everything in excellent condition. We’re so glad the location and boat launch worked out perfectly for them. We would happily host again anytime and highly recommend them to other hosts.
