Lovely house with a great location. Took the kayaks out, enjoyed the beach, and saw one of the best sunsets we've ever seen over the water. (And this was all in December.) Great room was huge and open, so great for a family gathering. Kitchen was very well stocked and equipped.

Perfect location for family gathering, plenty of space to sit and visit in all the rooms. Beds were comfortable, towels very plush. All amenities to make our place easy and very comfortable. Spent many mornings on the lanai. Table settings to serve all without running out of dishes. Coffee and wine bar great amenity. Our host was readily available for any questions or comments.
