A Wonderful Stay for a Very Special Family Weekend!We stayed at this home while celebrating our daughter’s wedding, and it was such a meaningful weekend for our family. Having a comfortable and welcoming place to come together, relax, and enjoy these special moments made the experience even more memorable.We were grateful to have a place where we could slow down, spend time together, and celebrate such an important milestone in our daughter’s life. These are memories our family will cherish for years to come.Thank you for being a small but meaningful part of such a special occasion. We truly appreciated our stay!

Setup worked well for our family with parents in the master bedroom downstairs and kids were able to enjoy the upstairs to themselves. We walked in to town each morning for coffee and a walk by the waterfront. House is well decorated and stocked.

This is an exceptional rental. Our group consisted of college sorority sisters age 79 plus. We loved the property and enjoyed sitting out on the front porch drinking our coffee and speaking to the morning walkers. The kitchen was very well furnished. Besides the living room, there were 3 different outdoor areas. It was clean and designer decorated. We will be returning.

Great location and beautiful home! Was perfect for our family of five. If I had to give a critique the kitchen is not very stocked. A few more gadgets like a pizza cutter or beach chairs would make it perfect.

This was our 4th stay in this home. We love this house. Great location and is perfect for our annual trip to South Port. It is so lovely and well cared for. Easy walk to all the great shops. This year for the first time we did have a few ants inside. The only complaint is that you do not supply enough towels and wash cloths for 7 people for a 3 night stay.
