Perfect Fishing Getaway
This home was exactly what we needed for our mini vacation and fishing trip. It was not overpriced at all We were able to put the boat in at the local ramp which was not far at all and pull straight up to back of property on canal. Kitchen utensils was stocked with all I needed to make us a thanksgiving dinner. home was super clean. We will be back again next year.

Great Getaway Nestled in the Forest!

Unfit for occupation
I strongly advise against staying at this property. Pro's: On a canal with quick access to the river. Con's: AC does not work. Temp climbed to 85 while set to 76. Infested with roaches. Don't turn on a light! Manufactured house on a significant lean. Back porch structure is deteriorated and dangerous. Really wanted to have a relaxing weekend with friends but our stay was significantly impaired by the condition of this property!
