"We had an excellent time staying at Boaters Delight! We spent two weeks here and what a wonderful house! All the amenities you would need were available. The layout was very open and spacious. The pool was fantastic to relax in after a long day of fishing!! Having our own dock space and access to the ocean just a minute away was everything we were hoping for. Joe our host had great communication and helped accommodate all of our needs. We even hung one of our old license plates from Wisonsin down in the tikii bar. I would highly recommend staying here! 5 plus stars all the way around!!! From Wisconsin with love, Chris and family!"
