We had a great time here. All we did is get food at bel bagel and deli and hang out on the beach and in the gulf. It was very relaxing and comfortable. Everything was perfect. Marcia and Michael in the office were exceedingly kind and accommodating.

Great place to stay!
Wonderful place to stay! Very clean, neat as a pin. The kitchen, small but well organized and equipped. Can make own ice and get extra ice at the ice maker near the pool. Nice pool and grounds. Well cared for. Very close to the beach!! Beach chairs and umbrellas available at the office (free). We loved our stay here!!-
P.S. A small drying rack would have been helpful in the screened in porch to hang wet swim suits. Thank you!
