Spring Break 2024
Absolutely loved it. I lived in satsuma for a few years almost 20 years ago and still have family in the area. We also had family visiting from NY and the place was excellent. So much room, a dock on the river and the public boat ramp just under a mile away! The house had everything we needed and more!!

Great location for a comfortable vacation
We really enjoyed our stay, the property location was fantastic and the area tranquil. The vacation property itself was well equipped and comfortable. It was a shame that due to recent heavy rains the dock wasn’t easily accessible as the river was high and the back yard waterlogged but the views from the back porch easily made up for this. Worth mentioning that cell service was spotty, so if you’re looking to disconnect from the digital world then this vacation home is perfect.

Amazing place
What an amazing place to stay if you are wanting to relax and have a good time. The back porch was amazing for the kids to play outside but not get bit by mosquitoes. Or great for adults to just relax. Boats fit great. Dock was clean, house was clean, lots of towels and toiletries. We will be abck for our annual family shrimping trip. Cute little bars and restaurants nice and close. My only complaint is that the swim area is all grown up with weeds. But we still had a amazing time!
