Great place to stay! The view of the bay side was incredible from the deck! We had fun hanging out in a very peaceful setting!

This house is beautiful with wonderful views from every side. One does need to be able to climb stairs to be able to Come and go.

10/10

Very well maintained, great view of the bay and right across the street from the Gulf side. Right next to Rollover Pass for birders and an easy drive to High Island. The property manager was fantastic and easily accessible. I really appreciate her, not that we needed her for anything major. The grounds are really lovely with a big yard and a very nice deck out into the bay that herons like to perch on. Really a fantastic experience.
