Aug 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect family getaway! We absolutely loved this property! It was close enough to the beaches but far from neighbors! My boys had a blast fishing from the dock, catching many different fish and crabs, and loved having a fire at night. I loved that this place had almost everything we needed, and the inside was beautifully decorated! We will be coming back! ##### Lindsey K. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia Oct 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Exceptionally Clean! The interior of the home has a coastal relaxing atmosphere tastefully designed. The home is surrounded by nature in a private setting. Expansive views of the bay and a dock to access the water is at your back door. Instant serenity as you enter the property grounds! ##### Patricia Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia Jun 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The cleanest home I have rented! Pro’s about the home: Great location/sound view with dock/sunrise view/screened porch/grill/fire pit/somewhat secluded in nature allows privacy and nature viewing such as deer. The interior is cozy with ample space to enjoy. Great kitchen amenities. ##### Patricia Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon G.
