We went for a spur of the moment weekend trip. Price was worth what we paid. Clean unit as well as the property. One of the beds wasn’t good for us but my daughters was good! Pet friendly, convenient location to the water. On site store, ice cream and pizza. We didn’t have time to use the pool because we went exploring. I would stay here again!
