Beautiful, clean home with nice "beachy" feel. The location on the canal is perfect "island life".

Reservation process was a breeze. Check in & out simple. We really enjoyed this home & would rent it again in the future.

Has all the essentials...

This rental is just okay. Location was quiet and easy to find. Towels and blankets were well worn. Water stains on ceiling. Floors were pretty dirty. Yard was in need of some work. I did reach out about using the kayaks but never got a response as to where to find the paddles. This place could be super nice. Just needs some TLC.
