We loved the house and location. Probably one of the cleanest VRBO rentals we have stayed in. Being so close to the beach and bay was the best of both worlds. The privacy fence was a plus so we could let our dog safely outside without a leash. The host thought of every detail to make this home comfortable and enjoyable. Thank you for such a relaxing vacation, it was just what we needed!

Amazing location with beach and dock access for fishing! Kids had the best time and we were able to walk to everything we wanted to do. House had everything we needed and we were able to enjoy the fire pit and smores one night as well!

Thanks for the review. It was wonderful that your kids fished in both the Gulf and the Bay. Smores at the fire pit must have been a bonus for them. Please visit us again.
