The house itself was absolutely beautiful and spacious. Living room is lined with sliding glass doors where you can look at the water and beautiful sunsets. Very well equipped kitchen. The living room on VRBO showed a leather sectional couch, but that is not what it actually had. Also, it's listed as a 2 bedroom, but there are actually 3 according to Zillow (one is locked off) along with certain closets and drawers that either had small locks or zip ties on them. The only negative for us was the owners stay in an RV trailer at the back of the property which isn't far from the house. Thus, we never used the back deck because we always felt we were being watched. We are in our 60's and and were just here for serenity and relaxation and privacy.

The house was very nice and the front porch was a very nice place to sit and enjoy the water and harbor views. The rooms were large and well furnished. The main ptoblem we had with the home was that the owners lived in the back yard in a camper. Most of the kitchen cabinets were wire tied shut and all the closets were locked shut. The price was good but we didn't feel like we rented the home for it's full use but just a place to stay. The owner was responsive to our request to fix the toilet.

Our stay at this beautiful waterfront property was truly exceptional. The view from the deck was absolutely stunning — a serene backdrop that made mornings peaceful and evenings magical. The location is ideal, with access to great restaurants and bars, yet the home feels quiet and private.Check-in was seamless, and everything in the home was immaculately clean and well-stocked.Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a relaxing, scenic getaway with all the comforts of home and a splash of luxury!

Cozy and Beautiful Home
Home is beautifully decorated and has everything needed for your stay. Enjoy sitting on the front porch and watching the gorgeous sunsets over Monroe Bay. Definitely recommend renting a golf cart to explore the community. A great place to relax. Our hosts, William and Sharon, are very friendly and accommodating to make sure everything is going well. Highly recommend! Plan to go back next year.

Lovely Front Porch
My family and I had a great time during our stay here. William was quick to respond to any questions we had, and the house was clean and comfortable. The complimentary coffee and snacks were nice and we absolutely loved sitting on the front porch where we could enjoy the view of the water. Would definitely stay here again!
