Great winter connection

This wasn’t a typical beach stay. We needed space for 3 separate families for 2 nights. This was a great option and great stay. Some issues at the beginning, but all recovered from as soon as possible. Would be nice if closer to ocean in the summer. But still would be great!!

My teen boys loved being able to step right outside and fish from the back door! It was absolutely perfect with plenty of space! The downstairs gaming area was great, especially having the extra bathroom. It was clean and up-to-date!

The property is cute and adequate for a stay short or long. It does have a boat slip and you can fish right there. Just be aware the house is worn down a bit , but nicely furnished and clean. Quiet neighborhood that felt safe!

Graduation Celebration

I stayed at this property to celebrate my God-son’s graduation. The place was perfect. We had such a delightful stay. The rooms were fitting for the amount of people that stayed and the outside setting was perfect for the company we had for the dinner. We cooked and ate and had a wonderful time with the beach just footsteps away. We loved it and we will definately celebrate other events here!

Quiet getaway

Quiet neighborhood close to everything you need, bait, boat ramp, great fishing, beach, and food. The house has two story , fun and games on bottom floor with washer and dryer, and restroom with shower, separated from top floor which has three quaint bedrooms full bathroom. The kitchen and family room are combined with an outside deck . Boat mooring area in little water cut in between all the beautiful homes. The mosquitoes patrol spays for mosquitoes so they are not a problem. GREAT STAY

Wonderful stay at Blue Marlin

This is a great property in a great location for a great deal!! There are a few small issues with the property that you can read about in other reviews, but since we were aware of them before booking none were deal breakers for us. If you're looking for perfect you can pay twice as much somewhere else and get it! We were looking for affordable and this sure met that requirement! We had a wonderful 5 night stay 😁
