House was clean and very nice !! We took our grandson for a fishing weekend and this place was perfect. close to everything well stocked and good dock for boat. loved the deck and looking out over the water and my little tiny yorkie could not slip between the slats. Everyone had a great time and we will stay here again for sure !!!
Great property especially for the price. Home is not brand new but is clean and well located. My son caught fish off the back dock every night and it is an easy walk across the road to the beach.
This house was just what we where looking for. Close to the beach, short walk across the road, fishing right off the back pier, a huge back porch to sit and relax , and the dog even loved it all, the house was easy to access and very clean. Will be definitely be renting the house again !! Thanks
Thank you, Tom for a Wonderful Fishing getaway @ Christmas on DI. We had a comfortable relaxing time now ready to plan our next!!! Easy check in/check out. Everything one needs is provided. Recommend anyone wanting to fish and relax.......This is your home away from home!!!
Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the view was Amazing! Peaceful and so Relaxing
More supplies provided than other rentals and No "Mandatory Requirements for departure like washing bedding and towels". Few outside light bulbs needed. Would definitely stay again and recommend. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home
Great vacation and house was perfect for what wanted to do. Dock for our boat and place to clean our fish worked just like we needed. Caught enough crabs to have a boil one night and sitting out on dock in evening was very enjoyable. Family is expanding so doubt we can stay here again but if a 2 bedroom with boat dock is what you are looking for then this place would be hard to beat.
The stay was pleasant and we will return.
Only three issues. There no bath clothes, bathing soap and not enough glasses. Also there were no printed instructions as to garbage pickup.
This is a very good house that has the potential to be a really great house. Between the listing & reviews I felt like I was well informed & expectations were met.
The owner had excellent communication, location is right on the bay side, great fishing off the dock, clean house, mostly updated inside. Beautiful kitchen & bathroom cabinets. Both heat & ac worked well.
The house could use some minor repairs, a deep cleaning, updated bedding, along with indoor and outdoor furniture. Honestly it would be an amazing improvement.
Regardless of my preferences, we really enjoyed everything!
We definitely recommend this house. The house/property was as advertised. Tom was great in answering our questions. We were a little concerned that we would regret not spending more $ to stay on the beach side but ended up loving being on the bay side and watching the boats pass by all day. Already planning to book again next summer and plan to bring our boat next time. As others have stated, the house could use a little TLC but it was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The deck was great for our 2 dogs and the massage chair was an added bonus after a long day fishing and at the beach. Can’t wait until next time.

This is our second year to stay at this same place. Location is amazing! However, the kitchen is lacking on being stocked. There are several areas from last year that needed repair, like walls that had been patched but never painted. From the VRBO pics we were planning on using the boat lift and were told just a few days before that they did not work and we’re not included it the rental. We used one last year. Just really disappointed this year.
This place rates a 5 for location. It has the beautiful bay views and is very short walk to the gulf side to enjoy the beach. Central location to everything. The place was clean in all the main areas; however could use a deep spring cleaning for under furniture, corners, on top of cabinets, decor up high. There are a few items needing maintenance as well..i.e. boards/nails sticking up, light bulbs needing replacing, broken hinges on blinds/doors in sitting room, broken lamp base...nothing major - just needs some TLC. Unfortunately they are building and repairing houses around this home, which made for a few very noisy days. We escaped to the beach when it got unbearable. Great place for 2-4 people and dogs. We loved that the deck which went around 3 sides of the house had gates to allow the dogs to roam freely when we were out on the deck. They had all the bare necessities covered hand soap, dish soap, sponges, dishwasher pods, laundry soap, towels, bedding, pots, pans, dishes, glasses, utensils. Please note there are little to no condiments, spices, coffee as some places provide - no worries - just be aware so you can bring your own. Again best location - other than the noise - and a few additional touches could really add to a stay here. We would rent here again.
