Beautiful vacation

The cabins are so beautiful and clean, that was my initial reaction when we walked into the cabin for our 3 day stay! The view of the water was so pretty and we saw lots of wildlife as well. The owner was so nice and friendly and we are already planning our next trip!

Great

Upon arriving there some miscommunications with bookings, hosts did not rectify their fault. Besides this the property is beautiful, the cabins were nice and we made the best of our mini vacation.

Cozy

What a cute spot. The cabins were very nice, the view was nice too bad there was some trees blocking it. The owner is wonderful always smiling and saying hello. It’s 15mins from town and a 5 min car ride to the beach. I would definitely go back.
