Great place to stay on the water!

We brought the boat and fished all week. Nice boat ramp close to the house and easy access to the bay.

In need of deck repair.

Property was mostly as represented. Somewhat dated and furniture in need of a sprucing up, both inside and out. The side upper deck was in very bad shape. Spongey to walk on and the handrail was completely shaky. I see it as a disaster waiting to happen. We made it a rule not to even go near it. I fear someone will fall right off when that handrail collapses.

Could use some touch ups

The house was big and spacious for our family Christmas week stay. Big kitchen and living area. Great patio space. Although the patio furniture could use an upgrade. We loved the outdoor swing and fish cleaning station. We fished every which way there all week and only caught a couple. No fish there. Rooms are a bit weird. You have to walk through bedrooms to get to other bedrooms. The house smelled awful and had to air it out when we first got there. I used a lot of fabreeze and candles and it was just super musty. The king bed was SUPER uncomfortable. The place could definitely benefit from some wall plug ins and a coat of paint. I had to go buy hand soap for all the bathrooms. There was only a partial bottle in the kitchen.
