Local Getaway

Place needs a little updating (curtain down in master, door knob came off last day)but hey location and the pool were a hit! Dock was also super nice to tie the boat up (plenty of room) and the ramp was basically in the same neighborhood. Would definitely do it again tomorrow! Last thing is this place is really well stocked from dishes to blender.

Good stay

Overall we had a great time. The property manager was extremely accomodating even after I left some personal property behind after check out. As for the house, the views are great, well stocked, and A/C worked great. The condition of the house could have been a little better, the seal between the windows and the house caused a LOT of flies to come into the kitchen and there were piles of fiberglass outside on the 1st floor patio due to some remodeling/construction work that was ongoing. Kept getting into the pool so that wasn't great. But all that said, would definitely come back again. Enjoyed fishing off the dock and swimming in the pool and taking in the views.
