AMAZING

Absolutely one of the most incredible rentals I’ve had the pleasure to stay at. The property was gorgeous, with a stunning view off the back deck. Amazing sunset. Just a few of the features: nice hot tub, kayaks, bicycles, gas fireplace (indoor and outdoor), keurig w/ coffee and creamers, and more. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Come enjoy the Mermaid Cove!
