Salty Point may be my favorite VRBO stay we’ve been to. It is very clean, well stocked with anything you could need, and the host was very friendly and knowledgeable. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. There was plenty of room inside and outside . We would gladly stay there again and hope we have the chance to do so!

Property well maintained. Has everything you need. Easy access to the gulf from the back yard. Bought a bunch of large blue crab at the docks. Reds were biting.

Back home on the Bay

We thank you for sharing your home with us. We enjoyed the accommodations. We tried to leave it as clean as we could with the supplies we had. We will definitely keep this home in mind for a return trip. We caught flounder, specs and reds good eating. We were able to brreak a way and visit Jefferson Island, the Rip Van Winkle gardens are absolutely like looking at a painting.

The home looked like it had just been new renovated and very nicely decorated. Kitchen was fully stocked and owner was in contact with us to give direction and also tell us how to get to the nearest store. I left something at the property and she went out of her way and time to send it back. We just had a great time bq on the deck and watching to sun go down. Great experience!

Extremely High Tide

The boat launch on the property was very beneficial - I was able to launch here while the State Park Boat Launch was flooded. The high water was an inconvenience but did not affect our stay. It was quiet in the evening, neighbor was very nice and helpful. The flat screen TV was an unexpected amenity, as was the gas grill - the grilled Redfish we caught was great. Beds were as good as at my home. Biggest complaint was light burned out light bulbs.
