My first impression was that the home was even more beautiful in person. So many places to sit and socialize in a relatively small home. We loved the sun room with wraparound view and the Adirondack chairs in the shaded breezeway outside. Highlights included watching a manatee swim up to the dock on our second day and kayaking out to Kings Bay and spotting manatees with the complimentary use of the provided kayaks on our third day. A perfect stay!
