Check in was easy and the place was perfect for my stay. I came down for a fishing trip and was able to park my boat at my rental. The owner was very helpful when I had questions about my stay as well. I will definitely stay here again.
Great location, cute cabin, very convenient for our needs but downside was no stove, oven or pots and pans. If you don’t plan to cook any meals it’s a winner.
