Having our boat right at the house with us and not having to go back and forth to the boat ramp for the whole stay was extremely nice. The neighborhood is extremely quiet and friendly. The property management was so quick to answer any questions and resolve any issues we had immediately. We extended our stay because we loved it so much and can’t wait to come back and stay again! ##### Ariel Y. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### rebecca w., Gobles 7 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### House great, island so so The best part about the island was this house was great, the neighbor on the right was very nice and pointed us to a restaurant with a pool and private beach. The only other good thing was from our location we drove 1-2 hours in both directions and visited New Orleans and Pensacola Florida. We made these trips primarily because the weather was horrible, and the island didn’t really have anything going on. ##### rebecca w.
