Tranquilily on the water
This property was the best equipped location I have ever seen. The kids and younger adults enjoyed the kayaks and all of us enjoyed the cornhole. My granddaughter caught three catfish, one flounder, and two turtles. She was thrilled. I would recommend this to anyone with kids or are kids at heart. Personally, the desk became my favorite spot with a book

The House with a View
The caretakers of this home truly thought of everything. It was welcoming, well stocked and well kept. They even arranged for osprey to make their nest in perfect viewing range. We enjoyed are stay so much we will definitely rebook in the future.
