The check-in process was seamless and the hosts were extremely proactive and communicative The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were so comfortable that we checked to see the manufacturer of the mattresses !! The stairs down to the water were a bit of a trek (maybe not recommended for young ones or old ones) but so so worth it. The dock was an amazing place to spend the day fishing or tanning, swimming or boating Fully stocked kitchen with anything you might need! The lower level was a great space for family games and movies / tv We will definitely come to stay again !! I can’t recommend Martha and Ray’s place enough 10/10

What the doctor ordered

My husband and I took our adult daughters and one granddaughter for a 2-day vacation, and we were extremely pleased with our vacation. Despite it being only 2 days, we all left the place content and relaxed. The location is fantastic, and the Airbnb surpassed our expectations. Strongly recommend the place for a nice quiet family gathering with lots to do e.g., kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming.... It was a great stay and our host even let us arrive early, so we could take advantage of the water in this hot weather. Greatly appreciated!
