About this property

The Barnacle--Perfect for the Fishermen...

If The Barnacle is not available, check out our listing, The Bunker; same location, same price, same quality.

After a hard day's fishing, what better place to relax than in convenient, comfortable surroundings in this fishing village. Located in a well-maintained, safe neighborhood, this apartment is inside the boat barn which makes for quiet, restful sleeping conditions just minutes from the boat launches.

The bedroom has accommodations for four with a twin over full bunk and a full over full bunk (4 beds). The bathroom is stocked with soaps and paper products. There is a big screen TV where you can stream all of the latest sports games and news and basic programming. Complimentary WIFI in addition to DirectTV are provided. ROKU remote.

There is a covered carport, propane grill, Old Smokey pit and yard furniture for relaxing outside. Security cameras are not armed during your stay to protect your privacy. Electric and water hook-ups are available.

ONE dog is welcome, but not in the bedroom. Please, kennel the dog indoors and leash it when outdoors. Do not allow a wet dog indoors. There is a $40 pet fee in the booking process. If you happened to skip that step, make arrangements with owner to pay on your arrival.

Please, park on the 45' X 29 ' wide rock drive between the Barnacle and the street. The cement driveway is for guests in the other two rentals on this property. Contact owner if you want to see if this space on the cement drive is available during your stay.

We do ask that you absolutely do not clean fish/ducks on the premises. It will be days before garbage pick-up and the stench will persevere a long while.

These accommodations are for 4 people only, including kids.

Enjoy your stay and do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions.

Adrian and Capt. Tom Hans

Property is very well appointed with plenty of towels etc. Very nice and clean.Improvement suggestion: get rid of the plastic landscape trim along the sidewalk - trim is loose creating a serious trip hazard. I was tripped by it twice but, luckily, did not fall.

FINtastic!

This was the perfect place to stay for our fishing getaway! The owners were very kind and responsive. The homes had everything we needed and then some. Multiple properties available at the same location was a nice surprise, as we were able to add an additional house and invite more family. We will definitely be back and recommend to others!

Property was very easy to check in, the property was very clean and the owners were super nice and very well at communicating. It was easy for us to come and go at the early morning hours to hunt and fish and come back after dark with no issues. Able to park our 2 cars and our boat there too with no problem.

Good base camp for fishing trip

There were 2 of us and the space was great. The bunk beds are solid for 4 people, but the space might be a little small for 4 guys with all your gear. Good parking for boat & Truck. You will have to disconnect truck.

Quick Get Away

We brought our 1yr old pup to take duck hunting. There was enough room in the livingroom/kitchen area for her travel kennel. Beds were comfy, shower was awesome and the tv had plenty Chanel’s to watch. We met the owners and they were super nice! Property was beautiful with ducks in the pond!

Quiet get away

The bungalow and barnacle were super cute, well stocked with everything you need. The beds were super comfy and the chairs outside under the covered porch out looking the pond and all the birds eating and feeding the baby birds was awesome. The kids liked fishing and a short drive to the beach was great. We had a small little issue with the AC but Mr. Hans quickly responded and had someone come out to check on it. We would definitely recommend and we look forward to coming back.
