We came back after 2 years, and nothing has changed — it's still the perfect getaway. The beach is very close, the kids had a great time playing in the sand, and we loved having the zoo and outlets nearby. Highly recommend

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was set up very well and we had many things to do. Most of us had little or no experience on the kayaks or canoe. But found them very enjoyable and it was very nice that everything was there and included for us to use.

Rainy Weekend Saved by Home

1-2 times a year good friends get away to fish. This time the weather did not cooperate but the home did. We were able to play cards, pool, darts and watch the NFL draft. We also had a great meal and drinks at nearby Lombardi’s. The home was extremely clean and spacious and offered everything we needed. Thank you.

The location of the house is excellent with beautiful views. Right next to the swimming and beach area for the kids. Plenty of watercraft for use including life vests. Kitchen is well stocked with the exception of a few nice griddles or frying pans.
