Very nice place !

Very nice place. Very clean. Enjoyed catching fish off the dock. Most restaurants are 15-30 minute drive but a few options real close. The house was as described . We would definitely come back. The listing is slightly deceiving regarding the pool and hot tub. That’s a hot tub in my opinion and in the listing some place it calls it a kiddo pool and says both are not heated. It’s a shame the pool and hot tub are not heated . The two tvs by bar under deck only one was present and it won’t power on. Tried new batteries even running it to another outlet. It just won’t power on. Other than the pool/hot tub and tv the place is absolutely awesome!

Nice view

This is a nice house. Plenty of space. If you're renting this house for fishing, it's not really a good location because the canal you were on is also the canal lazing into the marina. Other than that, it's a five star. Only other thing is the gas grill does not work

Amazing

House was as advertised, very clean and all the basics were provided. Fishing, and views are great, pool and outside amenities can’t be beat. Had storms which caused the pool to get dirty a couple of days, property managers had someone there asap to clean it, will definitely book our next vacation here absolutely no complaints.

Well unfortunately due to the hurricane that came through. We were unable to stay there. The host stayed in communication trying make it happen but Mother Nature and Electricity just didn’t happen. We do plan to stay in the future but would always recommend this stay.
