We really enjoyed it. You must be in tune with the tides if you bring a boat. Low tides can make it impossible to get to the dock. If you are aware and time your trips it's not a big deal.
Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2026
Response from VrboOwner on 11 July 2026
Glad y'all enjoyed your vacation. And Absolutely! Y'all had early afternoon negative tides, which are below sea level, which definitely makes it a challenge. Anyone looking to book a vacation can check with me on the tide chart to make sure you boating days aren't cut short.

Loved our weekend getaway. It was so quiet and the weather was perfect. We rode our motorcycles and were able to pull them under the house. We rode to Panacea and Crawfordville to eat. We also cooked at the rental several times, it is stocked with all the pans/trays/utensils needed. The owner responds quickly and is very informative about the area. We will be back!

Thanks Cathy. And yes, we have folks who live here full time, owners who come down on the weekends, and those who come down in the summer or winter, with a few vacation rentals sprinkled in. Makes it nice and quiet in spring, fall and winter. Summer is busier, but still has that undiscovered quality which we love!
