Communication outstanding. Home was very lovely. Stayed with friends for our anniversary. Had a wonderful time on the deck and sitting by the fire pit. Brung bug spray.Would stay again.
The house had everything we needed and was super clean. The house was bright and airy and very comfortable. The land was beautiful and right on the water. It'll be our first choice the next time we are in the area.
The house is perfect! We were there for a swim meet and I'm so glad I booked it! The house is bigger than we expected, new, comfortable and clean. The kids had fun fishing from the dock. Communication was great, check in was super easy. We'll be back!
Nicely recently renovated home, secluded with creek access - what more could you want?
This was a fantastic place to stay for a weekend getaway. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. With the dock, creek, kayaks, and canoes the kids enjoyed going out on the water, fishing, and crabbing. It was a great few days and we wish we could have stayed a bit longer.
