Perfect for us!
Spent a few days here with our grown kids and dogs. Being able to bring and dock our boat and PWC was wonderful! A “best of both worlds” since the area in front of house is calm and has a “lake vacation feel” but just a short boat ride to bigger water and Crab Island. House is cozy, well stocked and the great front porch was perfect spot to spend time when we weren’t on the boat! One of our best trips ever!

Great house!!
I hate to give it a review because I'm afraid more people will find it. This was an excellent rental! Location was perfect for what we were looking for, out of the way of everything and on the water at the same time. Beautiful views out of the back door, and a beautiful property all around. All the amenities you could ever need.
