We stayed at Living The Dream in 2022 and again last week. We had all the kids and grandkids and there was plenty of room. I absolutely love this house! The host was amazing, very good at communicating with us. The fishing was amazing and the pool kept everyone happy. I couldn’t wait until we was able to book it again. If you have a large family and looking for a great vacation house, this is it! I would recommend it to everyone!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this amazing home. The place was perfect for me, my brothers, and our grown children to get together for quality family time with endless fun in the sun and salt. The accommodations were clean, spacious, and extremely functional. There are communal areas where we could all gather comfortably and enough levels and space that it allowed smaller groups to get together and hang out or for someone wanting a little peace and quiet to get away from the larger group. The host was thorough and responsive. We could not have asked for me and are already considering making it an annual or semi-annual tradition. I highly recommend this amazing oasis on the bay!

Family reunion

Great property, going to book again for next year. Here are my suggestion for future groups….. you don’t need to bring ice, bring “strong” kitchen garbage bags, bring containers for leftovers. There are 3 refrigerators. Don’t need a Bluetooth speaker. And last…. Don’t bring a grill the one here is great.
