Perfect Getaway for Kids and Adults
This is one of the only homes we saw in the entire area that is ground level and not up on stilts. I can't explain how valuable it was to our family to have her able to participate in every activity indoors and out! The accommodations were bordering on luxurious. Due to the small size of our group, everyone had plenty of space in this very large home. We spent a lot of time outdoors enjoying the property. The hot tub was used every evening as was the fire pit for smores. Days and nights were spent fishing and crabbing off the dock. The dock is a very substantial dock with several chairs and a covered bench swing. Fishing was excellent, especially when the tide was moving,. During outgoing tides we caught freshwater fish including loads of bluegill, catfish and gar and during incoming tides we caught a mix of redfish, croakers and even sheepshead. We caught a lot of crab in the traps, unfortunately they were mostly undersized. A small alligator frequented the water in the little inlet in front of dock. He was easy to spot and get photos of as long as you approached the dock quietly. Meals were a pleasure to cook, either in the very well appointed kitchen or on either the gas grill or the green egg just off the back deck (which runs the entire length of the home). Many hours were spent relaxing on the deck with a book , by Grandma, while watching outdoor activities take place. The kitchen had all of the necessities and then some, we brought staples and ended up leaving them unopened because the pantry was so well stocked. There are two grocery stores with in a 10-15 minute drive and we got fresh seafood from fish market daily

Great Family Getaway
Perfect location for secluded family getaway, we certainly felt right at home. Though we didn’t get to meet our hosts in person because of social distancing, they were more than accommodating and were available at all times. Home has everything you could ask for, we hope to return soon!

Great getaway during quarantine
This was a very spacious home stocked with just about everything and more that you would need during your stay (other than meals). We have five kids so it was nice to have space to allow them to do their school work during quarantine. It was great to be able to keep the boat for early morning fishing. The owner is very responsive to any needs/questions you may have. It was so nice to be welcomed with an ice chest full of ice cold water and soft drinks. The kids loved the pop corn machine and the large connect four game. The instant hot water was also another great feature to have when you have a newborn!! We would definitely stay again!

Gorgeous house and Gorgeous property
We were so grateful to have found this beautiful home to get some much needed relaxing time for a few days! Everything was absolutely perfect, and well though of for anything we may have needed during our stay! The kiddos loved crabbing, and fishing on the deck, and little campfire with smores in the evenings! The hot tub was so nice to relax in as well! Also, not sure what the little kitties name is that comes and hangs out (our kids called him Tom while there) but he is the sweetest, and we loved spending time with him too!! We would absolutely love to stay there again, and highly recommend to everyone looking for the best spot to stay in the area!! Thank you so much for being amazing host!! God Bless, Penrod family

Perfect vacation get away for the whole family!
The owners Dick and Peggy were very friendly and greeted us on our arrival to explain details of the impressive home and all of the onsite activities that were available. It is a large property and a half hour with Dick saved a lot of looking around for different things (ex. how to turn the lights on/off on the beautiful dock). Covid-19 was just moving into full swing so we practiced social distancing but the East's made us feel like welcomed family guests! We had a party of only 8, four of which were teenage girls. Grandma and Grandpa stayed in the master suite on the main level which was unique because Grandma doesn't do well with stairs.
