Excellent stay. Place was very clean well provided. We really loved taking our daily walk. Beach and water area was beautiful, sandy and clean. Great communication with Cindi, as she was very prompt to answer any questions. I highly recommed this property for rental. Hopefully we can come back next year for another return here. Thank you very much for a very relaxing 5 days.

Summer 2025

The host was great. Well equipped, clean, cozy cabin. Nice sandy beach with access right across the street. Grandkids enjoyed the water immensely. The porch was a nice bonus that we used a lot. The grandkids enjoyed watching the chipmunks squirrels raccoons and the birds from the porch. We even saw a red fox out behind the house. The Wi-Fi is excellent as well. I would stay here again!
