Great place to stay and the people are very nice. Centrally located and have grocery store right next door. The facility was clean and convertible. The one thing I would warn anyone who wants to stay here is if you have motion sickness the constant movement of the boat will cause you issues.

This place was a dream!! So unique, clean, comfortable, peaceful, and quiet. Wish we stayed longer. Can’t wait to go back. I didn’t realize how close it was to the beach and the grocery store and we loved the bonus of free bicycles to ride with the family.

I was very peaceful, and access to the kayaks was a great amenity. The staff were friendly and helpful. Both my wife and i would definitely return.
Great place to stay especially for Floridans planning a weekender off season. The Cabana Club was also very nice and a huge plus! Get confirmation of any special requests like early or late check-ins in writing.
Very cozy and easy check in after opening hours of reception.

The staff is so friendly and accommodating. Clean and quiet. The house boats are amazing with little decks on the back. Perfect for couples or families looking for peace and quiet and quaint. If you’re looking to party move on, they don’t need you there lol. Seriously perfect place to relax and if you like to fish it has a great dock.
