About the host
Hosted by Philip Leroy Adams Jr
Kim and I have been doing vacation rentals for 13 years now. It started when we built our house on Grand Marsh Bay. That quickly blossomed into 10-13 weeks with us booking people from as far away as Europe. We tell all people that arrive and use our facility that they are in for a lifetime of memories. Thats what is a great pleasure for us to see that first glimpse at an Eagle or just having a lobster.
Why they chose this property
The land had been in our family for years, and we wanted to share the beauty with others.
