Relaxed in a Storm

Bill and Sandy were wonderful people to be dealing with. They kept us calm while we were there and helped us with information and ideals to help us through our days there. The storm showers came and went the 5 days we stayed. But the place was beautiful. The view from the deck as we watch the rain pass over, we’ll always remember the comfort of it. The place it self was more than enough for my family. It had everything we needed to rest and relax. Thanks Bill and Sandy for everything. Until next time.

Spacious - they thought of everything!

O. M. G. This is one of the best places we've ever stayed in the SPI area! Sandy & Bill thought of everything you could need for a weeks stay! Spices, foil, plastic wrap, TP, paper towels, fully stocked kitchen! Even some water in the fridge! Plenty of room for a family gathering. Various places to sit & eat inside & out. Laundry supplies & a large washer & drier in the unit. Nice size bedrooms with plenty of places to hang clothes & dressers, too. Lots of living space to enjoy. Plenty of towels & beach towels. Even a beach umbrella! Lots of pillows & blankets. If you are flying here, just bring your clothes & a few toiletries. The showers had great pressure & were stocked with shampoo, conditioner & body wash. Plenty of free parking, too! Sandy & Bill are right downstairs if you need them & great people! Wonderful to work with! Highly recommend staying here! Hope to be back in the near future!
