We had a wonderful week at Ripple. The kids ages 6-14 loved the kayaks and exploring the creek. The house was well appointed and comfortable. It was a lovely, quiet, location with great outdoors space. The host was easy to contact and quick to reply. Thanks!

We stayed to do a fishing tour in the bay, and it was perfect. It was extremely clean, and we loved the layout. It had plenty of space for our family. It has a nice dock and a fire pit in the backyard. Overall, there are only good things to say about this property. If you are planning a visit to the area, it is well worth it!

Beautiful Ripple

We had a small family reunion and 8 of us stayed in this gorgeous water front property. It was perfect in every way. The home is spacious and open with lots of room. Kitchen is well stocked. We enjoyed the screened in porch and sitting on the dock. I cannot say enough good things about this property. We will be back next year!!

What a Great Week!

The house is beautiful and the little extras were greatly appreciated, like washing machine pods, hair driers, trash bags, and hand soap. We liked the shower amenities and high quality towels. The views of the water from the house and dock was great for crabbing. Very clean and thoughtfully appointed. Kitchen was great - loved the fridge with built in water jug and touch faucets. Beds were very comfortable While we didn't use the kayaks, that was a nice option. However, not sure where to launch since the dock was high and the one landing had debris and tall grass. Screened porch was awesome. Internet was ripping fast
