The beds were very comfortable and came with everything you could possibly think of. I will be back to visit again. ##### Jennifer Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Marissa M. May 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Home The road to the home is very curvy which we are accustomed to because of where we live however there really isn’t room for 2 vehicles. We pulled up to the home and immediately noticed a swarm of flying insects. It’s understandable that they are there since it is very close to water. The home itself is amazing with the softest beds ever. Everyone absolutely enjoyed the home and we all left with ideas for our own home. Communication was great and the extra items for us to use was very thoughtful. We tried sitting out back because the lights set up is gorgeous but we were constantly fighting off June bugs. I would definitely stay again but maybe a different time of year. ##### Marissa M.
