Wonderful stay on the bay!

We really enjoyed our stay, thank you to Beth! The house was in great shape and our kids really enjoyed the dock. It was great having a gate on the fenced in dock for added piece of mind with young kids. We’ll be back!

Great Bay Stay

Property was nice and clean, comfortable and stocked with all we needed for our stay. Spent most of our time on the pier and caught croakers, catfish, redfish, sting rays, mullet, crabs, and a dog shark. Slept well and had a restful stay. Even got in on a small jubilee, a real bonus. Highly recommend for small families or couples.
