Fantastic find! The rental management company was very pleasant to work with (thanks, Gunner). The house is beautiful and is basically brand new. Kids loved swimming in the cove, the hot tub and the enormous outdoor big screen. We appreciated the outdoor ceiling fans which made being outside nice even in warm weather. There is a full size Weber grill and Solo fire pit. Great no wake location and close to a marina with a good restaurant. Just be aware and prepared for the stairs and steep driveway! Tip: Food City, local grocery store, is nice and has a good selection. And has a Starbucks inside. ##### Stephanie M.
