We had a great stay at this place. We really like the fact that there was kayaks there for us to use and not have to rent them or bring hours ours from out of town. The house is very clean very tidy. The only negative I have to say is whoever is cleaning after the gas need to do better at cleaning the pots and pans. I am a cook at home kind of guy and the pots and pans still had stuck on food and we're nasty. Nothing that would stop me from going back again I would definitely visit the next time I'm back in the gulf

Everything that was in the photos was at the air B&B. Very respectful and responsive host. Felt right at home in the air B&B. VERY clean, most clean air B&B we have stayed at. Had complimentary coffee for us and a hand written letter.
