Relaxing

My family and I stayed here for some relaxing fishing, golfing and just hanging out. It was ideal. The fishing was good, close to golf options and the not far from town. The space was big enough for everyone without being too big.

This property was exactly as described! This home has plenty of space for 6 adults and a toddler to roam in her walker. The hosts went above above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable, from having a baby crib set up when asked, a baby gate at the steps, extra bird seed for the many visiting birds, and a welcome basket upon arrival. They dropped off a full propane tank for the grill, just in case. The property and location do not disappoint!!
