We stay at a lot of nice VRBO houses, and this was among our favorites. The fishing and kayaking right from the dock are great activities. And the house is well maintained and functional, plus spacious with great views. Lisa is easy to communicate with and super nice. We hope to be back!

Lisa was awesome! The home was stocked with many extras like hand soap at every sink, dishwasher detergent, laundry pods, paper towels and napkins etc… which made settling in to the very comfy home that much easier! The kitchen was well stocked with nice pots and pans, serving platters and also condiments that you typically don’t get in a home rental. We cooked all meals at home. Very comfortable beds too. Would definitely recommend and stay there again!
