The cabin was clean and comfortable for the two of us. The place is peaceful and a short drive to multiple restaurants. The boat dock is great. We spent a few evenings sitting on the dock fishing or just enjoying the wildlife. The owners were great. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect ‘home base’
Perfect ‘home base’ for our scallop trip. The property is beautifully maintained and the dock was an added bonus for us. We were able to keep the boat there and it made it a breeze going in and out on our adventures for the day. The place is clean and has everything you need. We are already looking at when we can get there again!

Second time starting at this property. If you’re looking for a quiet, tucked away piece Florida this is it. Host was more than accommodating and look forward to booking this listing again for my annual trip. All you need to keep busy, even on a rainy day!

This rental is on the same property with the owners house and set back from the river. If you have a boat they have a dock to share. It was easy to communicate with the owners through VRBO. The place has what you need for cooking etc. On the down side, we couldn't get the TV sound to work or change channels. Also, there was no place to hang your clothes or things.

Exactly as described
My husband and I went for a short weekend getaway and were delighted with the cabin! It is the perfect size for a couple and was very clean. The use of the dock for our boat was an added bonus, the house is conveniently located to town and only about a 10 minute boat ride down the river to the ocean. We will definitely be back!
