Great location and space. The showers were great! The towels were old and in poor condition, several kitchen drawers needed cleaning, the back patio was covered in leaves, and several pieces of furniture were broken.

Perfect place for my buddy and I to get away for a bit and do some fishing. Place had all the basic essentials- and check in was a breeze. Nice, quiet location- plenty of parking room for my truck and boat trailer, quick access to the nearby boat ramps, and a convenient dock to tie up to.

The home served our needs for sleeping accommodations. The home was clean but didn’t look ready for renters (drywall mud patches and broken toilet paper holder, no soap in one of the restrooms). We noticed several of the pub chairs were broken/ missing pieces at the bottom and the back deck didn’t look safe in some areas. Morning to be picky, just giving some feedback. :) Thanks so much for being flexible with check in. We appreciate your willingness to leave the key.
