This property was perfect for our family of 4 plus our fur baby! The home was super clean and everything was provided as listed. The beds and other furniture were very comfortable. The screened in porch, big back yard and dock made for such a fun trip. We enjoyed fishing, kayaking and watching all the wildlife.
