This cottage home is outstanding and a fun place to vacation. We really enjoyed the backyard with the grilling and just sitting outside enjoy seeing all the boats that pass bye and seeing a few manatees and fish from the dock. The inside was just beautiful and comfortable.

Lovely, quiet bay side retreat! Great restaurants nearby, with lots of beautiful beaches just over the bridge!

Pictures do not accurately reflect this home. Yard is in disarray and uncared for in the front yard and backyard. Needs some serious organization and cleaning. Inside of home was clean, however lacked blankets and bathroom comforts such as nice towels.
