Highly recommended!! The cleanest rental I have ever been. Everything you may need they have it from the kitchen to the rooms. We love the outdoor accommodations, it was perfect to enjoy with the family. Extra point if you are taking your boat the sandbar is like 10 minutes from the house.

This place was fantastic! Everything was in great condition, clean and comfortable! Check in was nice and easy! We were traveling from Louisiana with my Bay Boat in tow and it was a breeze docking at the private dock and they even let me keep my trailer on side the house. The pool was the perfect way to unwind after long days out in the saltwater. The kitchen was the perfect place for us to cook our fresh catch daily and all the amenities in the house were top-notch! I can’t say enough good things about the experience and we can’t wait to go back!

What an amazing stay! This was hands down one of the best vacation rentals we’ve ever experienced. The house was absolutely spotless—every inch was impeccably clean. The sheets and towels were super white, fresh. It’s rare to find a home this clean, and it made our stay even more enjoyable.The pool was absolutely beautiful, crystal clear, and the perfect place to relax and unwind. The entire property is so well cared for, and you can tell Ann and Kurt truly take pride in keeping everything in perfect condition.Ann and her husband were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely cared that we had a wonderful stay. They were thoughtful, responsive, and a pleasure to communicate with from beginning to end.If you’re looking for a beautiful, exceptionally clean home with wonderful hosts, look no further. We would return in a heartbeat and highly recommend this home to anyone. Thank you, Ann and Kurt , for making our vacation so memorable!

Be wary before booking - the place is beautiful and in a great location. Home was clean and stocked well. But this was thr worst customer service experience I’ve ever had with a VRBO rental. We rent multiple times a year for over a decade now for fishing trips. We’re always careful and go above and beyond to clean up and follow strict check in and check out instructions. This rental requires the strictest of rules that must be followed to the T, the strangest being that no day guests are allowed during a vacation stay.
