Host profile image

We are part time missionaries who have led medical and other mission teams all over the world; focusing for the last few years on the fight against the horrible crime of Human Trafficking. We work through our local church and Teresa has founded "Chains Interrupted" which works locally, nationally and world wide to increase awareness as well as real prevention, rehabilitation and even rescue.
We love to travel and have children in 5 states.

Why they chose this property

Walking distance to downtown. Amazing culture, restaurants, bars, theater within just a couple blocks as well as nice quiet evenings on the water. Note this bungalow is literally floating. It's super secure and steady. But you will feel it move, especially on windy days.
