Great place to stay!

Great place to stay. Location is great. The golf cart is a nice bonus to have. The game room down stairs was also put to good use for the big group we had stay here. The house is close to everything, and the water is not too far of a walk, or a brief short golf cart ride. I will be staying here again next year.

Great property -great location and plenty of room

I stayed with multiple family members, sleeping arrangements were easy, and comfortable. There was great accommodations for entertaining upstairs and downstairs for multiple interests and a community playground right across the street. The boat house and dockage were easy to access and plenty of parking for vehicles and trailer, and even 1 block away from getting good breakfast and hot donuts too!
