Just What We Needed
The hubby and I wanted a peaceful weekend getaway to relax and unplug. This place delivered! The property was beautiful inside and out. The waterfront views were gorgeous, the neighbors friendly, and property cozy, clean, and welcoming! We will be booking a stay here again.

Quick socially distanced getaway
Heritage Harbor is an in-progress community that will be amazing when its complete.We rented "Somewhere Else",a cute 2 story cottage right on the river with amazing views.The decor was super cute...but a few suggestions: the master bedroom really needs a ceiling fan and a better bed frame.The room was stuffy even with AC on and the bedframe squeaked with the slightest move, despite the matress being comfy. There are also LOTS of river bugs that get in the house...not a huge deal, but annoying. The renter ahead of us left the grill a mess and when I went to clean it, the grease trap was FILLED with cigarette butts! Ewww...otherwise, a nice cottage and lots to do: swimming, boating.The onsite restaurant has a great lobster quesedilla!
