The Barnacle--Perfect for the Fishermen...
If The Barnacle is not available, check out our listing, The Bunker; same location, same price, same quality.
After a hard day's fishing, what better place to relax than in convenient, comfortable surroundings in this fishing village. Located in a well-maintained, safe neighborhood, this apartment is inside the boat barn which makes for quiet, restful sleeping conditions just minutes from the boat launches.
The bedroom has accommodations for four with a twin over full bunk and a full over full bunk (4 beds). The bathroom is stocked with soaps and paper products. There is a big screen TV where you can stream all of the latest sports games and news and basic programming. Complimentary WIFI in addition to DirectTV are provided. ROKU remote.
There is a covered carport, propane grill, Old Smokey pit and yard furniture for relaxing outside. Security cameras are not armed during your stay to protect your privacy. Electric and water hook-ups are available.
We love pets, but we ask that you do not leave your pet alone all day while you are gone without kenneling it. There is a $40/pet fee in the booking process, you may need to look for it under the input for number of guests. If this fee is not deducted at booking, it will be deducted from the damage deposit (including VRBO fees) after your departure. Also, there are pet geese and chickens roaming the property; please, control your dog to avoid fetching them. NOTE: only 1 pet is allowed. Excess dog hair will result in an extra fee for cleaning of $25. Don't forget its bedding to avoid using rugs for its bed.
Please, park on the 45' X 29 ' wide rock drive between the Barnacle and the street. The cement driveway is for guests in the other two rentals on this property. Contact owner if you want to see if this space on the cement drive is available during your stay.
We do ask that you absolutely do not clean fish/ducks on the premises. It will be days before garbage pick-up and the stench will persevere a long while.
These accommodations are for 4 people only, including kids.
Enjoy your stay and do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
Adrian and Capt. Tom Hans

Capt. Tom was very nice and made sure we didn't need anything. The property was very clean and accommodating with everything needed for a great stay.Would highly recommend.
It was a great little place! Easy to get in and out, close to the marina, and it was clean and comfy. Will definitely be staying here again. Oh and the beds were comfy!
This place was a perfect location to everything. Our friends stay right down the street & we could walk to their place. The host was on the property,& he was very friendly and took care of answering any questions we had. We would love to return!Thanks for a great stay!
My friends and I picked this place for our galentines weekend. The restaurants we went to were amazing and everyone was friendly. The little house was perfect for the 4 of us to do arts and crafts.
Property is very well appointed with plenty of towels etc. Very nice and clean.Improvement suggestion: get rid of the plastic landscape trim along the sidewalk - trim is loose creating a serious trip hazard. I was tripped by it twice but, luckily, did not fall.

Hey Gary,
I am so sorry this happened. I will let the yard service know and see if there is an alternative way to contain the debris from washing onto the sidewalk. Anyway, it was nice meeting you and having you as guests.
