Family celebration of life
The house was spacious with lots of room for all 10 of us. Being able to sit on the deck and enjoy the river as well as being able to dock our boat was a bonus. Ashley was quick to respond to my questions. All of us were super happy with the aamaazing beds.! I hope that next summer we can rent it again

Perfect location
The house was perfect for our family. It was very clean and had everything you needed to feel at home. It has a nice size yard and on a quiet end of a canal our easy access to Indian River and close to town. Wish we could’ve stayed longer for sure!!
