Bass Fishing Stay

This was a great little property and communication with the management team was good. The driveway was a little small for my truck and my bass boat, but it would be fine for three vehicles otherwise. I would stay there again...

Cute little house that's not so little!

I was impressed with the renovations that have been done. The house provided two rooms for my daughter and her husband and their two daughters close to each other and a master suite that allowed my husband and I to enjoy being with them, but not be disturbed by them. It served as a great home base as we visited family in Florida. We'd definitely stay there again!
