We had a wonderful stay. We caught lots of fish and a few scallops. The marinas have a place where you can clean all your fish and scallops. Just bring some ziplock bags for storage. And don’t forget a cooler. We needed a place to park the boat and rinse it every night after coming off the water and we were able to do just that! Can’t wait to book this place again next summer.

Fishing with buddies.
We stay just one night at our home we picked out on VRBO and we definitely like that it was exactly as the pictures listed it. We all agreed that if we come back for fishing or scalloping we would definitely try and stay at this location and would highly recommend to friends and family.
