Great spot for the Family
Nice family spot to enjoy each others company. Fishing from the backyard! A fire pit! Or just relax on the dock. My wife and our 5 kiddos loved this place. It was clean, it was pet friendly, had awesome views. Plenty of sleeping space for our crew. My littles loved turning the dock lights on and watching the fish swim to the light. We will be saving this space for future getaways. Thank you for the lovely place to stay!

Great Fishing Spot
A nice getaway for the Thanksgiving holiday. Our first time to rent on the East side of the island & we were not disappointed! Caught red fish, speckled trout, black drum, sheepshead & even a stingray! The strand is only a few miles up the road which made for easy Christmas shopping. House & property were clean. A plus to have a ground floor restroom for those days spent Fishing!
