The houses were so cute! We had a great time and the views were beautiful!! Everything was clean, the air conditioning in both houses kept you good an cold, I was so glad I was able to take my dog with me! My husband had a good time fishing, he caught a lot of catfish, some croakers and some others I’m not sure what they were lol. Shonna is very nice and answered my questions very fast, I’d rent from her again. Thank you for a wonderful time!

What a cute place. We had a great vacation with our adult kids and one of our dogs. Will definitely consider again. Thanks for hosting us. A/C was good could be better in the guest house, but works okay. Porch could be a little more inviting but also works. All in all very relaxing. Thanks again. Very clean.

Cabin on the bay

Main cabin is small but comfortable. We had problems with the AC but it was quickly taken care of. One of the bedrooms AC duct did not work so it was a little warm but overall a nice stay. The smaller cabin was much nicer and AC was super cold. Flloring in main cabin needs replaced and shelving or some place to put things in the bathroom would be nice. There wasnt even room to put your toothbrush or toothpas

Week Long Vacation

House was great - no complaints at all! It fit our family and needs perfectly! Great fishing and cozy atmosphere. House was well stocked with everything we needed. My only complaint is with the unfriendly neighbor in the blue house next door. He is obviously not a fan of living next to a VRBO rental. Stinks to pay that much to rent a house for a relaxing week and have to deal with someone who is obviously annoyed by your presence…
