This was our second stay and we loved it just as much as the first time. We appreciate the dock and easy access to the river. We used the crab traps provided and had a boil on our last night. Kitchen is well stocked. Host was friendly and checked on us a few times during our stay.

This home was truly a hidden gem! Perfect for our family of 7-Easter dinner. At no time was it a crowd, as there are plenty of cozy places to lounge, indoors and out. There's a very nice foosball table in the living area where young & old were challenged continuously throughout our stay. We loved the dock and outdoors, where wildlife was abundant. We loved our stay and already looking forward to another visit. Great memories. The listing photos are accurate.

What a great stay. The house had everything we needed , even a very large pot to cook all the crabs in. The dock area was my highlight of the trip. You have power and also a good seating area and place to keep the dog when checking crab pots. Thanks George and Lacy….

Perfectly located for trips by boat to the springs too. The kids had a great time on the water, dining on the dock, and playing games inside! 4 adults + 5 kids + 1 dog + pontoon boat = fun 4 days!!!
