This property is beautiful. If you want to crab it’s the bomb. If you don’t crab and just want to sit and look at a gorgeous view this is also the place. The host thought of everything. Super comfortable rooms and beds… great atmosphere….easy to get to. Amenities close by. House is packed with everything for kids and adults alike.

Thank you, Pete, for a great vacation. The place is truly amazing and has everything you need: nice and clean house with it's sole and a fully stacked kitchen, great views on the water with different boats coming in and out, nice and spacious front lawn on the bank where we spent hours playing games, fishing, crabbing, and just relaxing in comfy chairs. Not for swimming though... Special thanks to Pete for his hospitality, prompt communication, answering all the questions and providing clear instructions.

This is our second time staying at Pete's property. We spent a lot of time fishing, crabbing, and watching boats go by. Cages were already baited when we arrived, and we got 4-6 crabs per day during our stay. House had ample supplies of everything we needed to cook family meals throughout the week. Plenty of grocery stores and eateries within a 10 min drive. House was very clean and perfect as a quiet and relaxing place to spend some time with family. Great communication from host - made check in and check out very easy.

Wonderful stay in a well appointed home. Osprey watching on the deck while sipping coffee with no bugs was the best. We greatly enjoyed our stay.

We had a wonderful stay and loved the location. A highlight was catching 2 crabs the last day and eating them for breakfast. Thanks for providing everything that we needed!

Beautiful home and property! The house was wonderful, clean, and comfortable. My wife, 9-year- old son, and I had a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We had some luck fishing as well, mostly Spot, but my son caught a Flounder on his first cast, riding the bottom. Highly recommend to families looking to relax and enjoy the river/bay. Thanks, Pete!
