The host, Emily, was very kind and quick to respond if we needed anything. Which we didn’t need much, because she has the home set up so perfectly. It was clean, stocked with whatever we needed, and very cozy. She also decorated for Christmas which was a lovely touch. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Fun fishing spot and great stay

The property was very well done and we felt welcome. We enjoyed the stay and spent hours fishing off the docks right at the place. It’s a quiet area, and we did not have any concerns.

Very nice space with a great living room and quiet area. Bedding was low quality with top sheets missing on all but one bed, mostly clean but there was mold on the shower curtain and in the washing machine, and the kitchen supplies were low quality and lacking a bit. Host was great and very responsive.

Beautiful Accommodations !

Very clean, tastefully decorated, and responsive host. Marina and was not as pictured but it was because of the heavy algae, very green, but that is not something the host has control of. Overall great experience.
