FINtastic!

This was the perfect place to stay for our fishing getaway! The owners were very kind and responsive. The homes had everything we needed and then some. Multiple properties available at the same location was a nice surprise, as we were able to add an additional house and invite more family. We will definitely be back and recommend to others!

Good base camp for fishing trip

There were 2 of us and the space was great. The bunk beds are solid for 4 people, but the space might be a little small for 4 guys with all your gear. Good parking for boat & Truck. You will have to disconnect truck.

Quiet get away

The bungalow and barnacle were super cute, well stocked with everything you need. The beds were super comfy and the chairs outside under the covered porch out looking the pond and all the birds eating and feeding the baby birds was awesome. The kids liked fishing and a short drive to the beach was great. We had a small little issue with the AC but Mr. Hans quickly responded and had someone come out to check on it. We would definitely recommend and we look forward to coming back.

Quick Get Away

We brought our 1yr old pup to take duck hunting. There was enough room in the livingroom/kitchen area for her travel kennel. Beds were comfy, shower was awesome and the tv had plenty Chanel’s to watch. We met the owners and they were super nice! Property was beautiful with ducks in the pond!

Highly Recommend

We enjoyed our stay at this nice little rental. It was very clean and comfortable. I really loved the big open shower! In our spare time in the evenings, we hung out at the picnic table in the patio area or walked over to the nice size pond with a pier with seating. The ducks and geese were eager to greet us too. They followed us around and quacked and honked but were very polite and kept their distance. It would be a great place for a family to stay. The owners were so friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. This will be my choice again in the future
