We stayed for 7 nights as a family with 2 dogs and it was perfect for us! The house is as pictured and fully stocked (kitchen items, linens, books, games, DVD's) The beds are comfortable and the beach chairs and wagon came in very handy. You couldn't ask for a better location- it's a 2 minute walk across Bienville Road to the beach if you want to enjoy the waves or you can walk straight out the back door to the bay side for a calmer setting. There is a mowed section behind the house and a path right down to the water with enough sand to set up chairs and watch the sunset. This house doesn't have a fishing dock, but the water is shallow enough to walk out to almost the end of the neighboring dock and cast out if you'd like to. The kayaks were perfect for our kiddo and at low tide the water was only about knee high so we felt comfortable with him on his own to paddle around. The outdoor shower was perfect for getting rid of sand before heading back inside. It's only a five minute drive to local restaurants and gift shops. The local grocery is expensive so it's worth the 20 minutes back over the bridge to the nearest Dollar General for any food you'll need at the house. I've seen reviews mention that the house a bit dated, but I'd say it's more nostalgic than some of the cookie cutter updated properties. It made it feel more like you were going to your favorite aunt and uncle's cool beach house when you were a kid and have the best summer ever.

Great spot for a relaxing get away with family.

Check in was easy. One of bathrooms had gotten locked and it was taken care of immediately.

The property is just as listed and everything we needed it to be. Like some other reviews I will say bring bug spray the mosquitoes can be annoying. I was disappointed there was no dock for the grandson to fish off of, but that was my error for not asking. It would be nice if the path to the bay side was wider. Also the beach is just a short walk across the road. A wagon can help with the trek. My family and I did really enjoy the island. Definitely come to relax if that’s your goal.
