A break from 6 children
When we were looking for a fun quiet weekend away from homeschooling we found this beautiful property. We were able to stay in all weekend and the fun never ended. October might be too late for the pool but its never too late for their giant hot tub. We very much plan on taking all our homeschoolers for lots of beach fun next year .

Perfect Family Reunion Vacation
Couldn't ask for a better place. The location to the beach and fishing on the lake in the backyard was great. The horses visiting often was a plus. The kids were never board and so much space.

A vacation to remember
It was everything we could want. We had a pool, horses almost every day, paddle boat, paddle boards and kayaks to take out. There was a hot tub that the others enjoyed, I went out every day in the paddle boat and sometimes by myself. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to keep clean. The bedrooms were perfect. We had the beach and then tons of fun in the evenings playing board games. It is a vacation we will never forget. The owner responded to any questions or needs we had. One day I just sent him photos of all the horses in the yard. There is nothing I can say that was negative and hope to someday got back.

About the host

Hosted by Marty Thompson

Host profile image
My name is Marty, and I've been in the hospitality business for most of my career. I fell in love with Carova years ago, and have been blessed with the opportunity to host a few properties here. I'm excited for you to share in the experience of being disconnected on the sand.

Why they chose this property

I purchased this house in 2022 as a tribute to my parents, Liz & Neil. One of their greatest joys was entertaining family and friends, and this house represents their love of bringing people & families together for meals, fellowship and an overall great time.

What makes this property unique

This house has just about everything you could possibly want... privacy, incredible views, easy beach access, canal access for motor boats or jet skis, heated pool, hot tub, paddle sports, pool table, volleyball and more. It's a special place and feels like home... I can't wait for you to share it with us. :-)
