Mom's Birthday Weekend

Great place with excellent fishing! The wind wasn’t ideal, but the location is absolutely incredible. My only suggestion would be to add some comfortable seating on the balcony. Other than that, everything was awesome!

Excellent Rental

This property was clean and well maintained. The only negative is the pool took priority over the fishing! Excellent location and beautiful pier. Would definitely use again.

Fabulous

Short stay for my daughter’s nearby sporting event. This is a fabulous place to stay - we were able to enjoy the view, as well as catch some fish off the pier. The pool is beautiful too! I would book this again!

Great getaway!

My family had a getaway!! This was our 3rd time renting this property, everytime we’ve been it’s been a great stay. We had a great time swimming & fishing. The pool was perfect for this summer heat. The property owner is very welcoming & kind. We will definitely be back!

Paradise!

We had an amazing time staying here. The pool was clean and the yard was well maintained. The fishing dock was so nice. We didn’t catch much, but we had a great time anyways. The two bathrooms were a plus & we loved the shower . The view was so beautiful. We will definitely return. Thanks for having us.

Great fishing trip

Annual fishing trip with 4 old guys from all over the country. The lay out of the house, amenities, pool and dock were all great. My only comment is a larger TV would be nice. Highly recommended.

Bed from Hell.

The location, cleanliness of property, view, pool and pier were all excellent. Pier fishing probably better in winter when wind is not in southeast. All excellent except for the bed we slept in. Too soft and mattress lopsided with hole on one side and hill on other. Second night I slept on the sofa bed.

Caught trout all night!

Four of us went down for a bachelor party and met the owner upon arrival. He was extremely accommodating and the property was even nicer than advertised! We had an absolutely amazing time and caught trout, redfish, black drum, gaft tops, and even some needlefish, we all went home with lots of fillets in our coolers. Our group of guys couldn’t have been more happy with this place and are already planning to go back! 5 stars across the board for the property
