The beach is very close and convenient, it was nice to be able to watch sunrises and sunsets. The property is very private, we even saw deer walking around on it. The screened in and covered pavilion is also a very nice bonus! We will definitely love to stay here again! ##### Michelle C. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### jerry k. Jun 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Island stay The site is rustic, natural and private. Not plush but adequate. I made a few suggestions for the manager for improvements to accommodate those of us who are older. The screened area was much more spacious than the house. My only complaint is the positioning of the bed. It was only accessible on one side and crawling out for potty trips at night was a challenge for the inside sleeper. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/221161df-0d82-4ae0-8331-7dbbbb3cf8f9-1750613286179.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### jerry k.
