We stayed here on our annual mother/daughter trip. It was the perfect place to hang out, play games, watch the birds/boats/freighters, and have a bon fire. Also close to restaurants. Kitchen was well equipped. Beds were comfy. There were many extra and thoughtful touches. Stay here!

Decent location, very clean

Very impressed with how clean the house was upon arrival. Nice amenities like upgraded showers, well stocked kitchen, and even a little gift basket of items that might be needed. Yard is very flat which was great for playing Cornhole, beersbee, and bocce ball. We enjoyed our stay, highly recommended.
