LOCATION LOCATION!! We saw beautiful sunrises from the front of the cabin and beautiful sunsets from the back! The beach was steps away from the house. Lots of time spent on every deck space. The dogs had the run of the place, with the convenient doggy doors, fence and several gates in between. Great price for the space!!

Pool | Hot Tub | Fire Pit | Sleeps 16

DubRating, 5 stars1 month ago

This house was as advertised. Clean, inviting, organized, and well decorated. Amenities, games (especially the shuffleboard and digital board game), sleeping arrangements, and bed comfort were fantastic. The downstairs patio was well laid out with functional and comfortable furniture. Sunset view was unreal. Got great use out of the Blackstone griddle. Look forward to booking another stay here at the end of the summer.

Two kayaks are secured at a wooden dock, with bright orange and blue colors contrasting against the calm water. The view showcases charming houses along the canal, with clear skies reflecting in the water.
