Majestic bayfront home. 450’ pier w/ boat access, crabbing, fishing, & swimming.
The camp is very nice, we had a small issue upon arrival with one of the locks, the host was quick to send someone out to fix the problem. The camp was clean and the kitchen has what you need to cook and bake. The 2nd level was great for boiling and grilling. Space was good too.
