Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The location was great—calm, clean, and very convenient. We loved being close to the channel/bay watching the boats on the patio! Also was near golf rental if you need! The property itself was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We would gladly return and highly recommend it to others.
