We absolutely loved this property! It was close enough to the beaches but far from neighbors! My boys had a blast fishing from the dock, catching many different fish and crabs, and loved having a fire at night. I loved that this place had almost everything we needed, and the inside was beautifully decorated! We will be coming back!
The cleanest home I have rented!
Pro’s about the home:
Great location/sound view with dock/sunrise view/screened porch/grill/fire pit/somewhat secluded in nature allows privacy and nature viewing such as deer.
The interior is cozy with ample space to enjoy.
Great kitchen amenities.
