Whether you're interested in the marinas, hiking trails, or simply enjoying the natural beauty, this property is well-placed for it all.The house itself is spacious and provides a comfortable environment for guests. It offers plenty of room, making it suitable for families or larger groups. However, it's worth noting that the home could benefit from a little TLC to improve the overall experience.Overall, this rental property is a good choice for those looking for a scenic location with easy access to nearby activities. While the house could benefit from some additional attention, the space and views make it a pleasant stay."
