Great place
My husband and i needed a getaway from life. This beautiful property was perfect for what we wanted. It was a nice surprise that Walmart delivered so i didnt have to worry about forgetting anything. Also there is a small roadside stand that sells fresh smoked mullet that you need to try. Head to 60 and you will see it across from the dollar general

We were there for work. It meet all of our requirements for myself and my employees, we were close to our job and supplies were about 20-30 minutes away from our location. We had what we needed to make our stay a lot better than a hotel. We will use your company again when we have to go back.

Short Stay in Paradise
We had a wonderful stay. The home was fantastic, and we thoroughly enjoyed the boat dock. The only complaint I have is the fossette water smelled after running for a few seconds. And you would benefit from adding a coffee pot and removing the Keurig.
