Great location for family reunion

Enjoyed the views and plenty of room for our group. Although there is no water access except via boat at the property, we did walk down the road to the public beach. Although it was rocky in the water, we enjoyed the undeveloped location where the kids found crabs and other creatures.

Family Panacea 2025

Our yearly vacation with our family was awesome. The house was gorgeous and more than we could’ve ever asked for. We loved it. Close to the beaches close to the boat ramp and had a dock. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen and living area were huge. and at 72 I really enjoyed having an elevator to use.

We loved staying at this house. It was very clean and spacious. It also has an amazing view that you can enjoy in the morning while drinking a coffee or at night as the sun sets while having a cocktail. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Amazing Beach/Bay House!

I stayed here with 13 other friends and we had an incredible time at Claudia's place! This place is well decorated, stocked, and has an amazing view of the bay. The property is very close to a small beach, or you can drive 20-30 minutes to access other, bigger beaches. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and didn't want to leave. This place is an absolute gem - highly rec!
