We had a great time staying here. The board walk worked out great for two boats and made it much easier access to the bay. All rooms were clean as well as the common areas. Overall a great experience with great hosts who communicated very well with us. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Nice location and views

My husband and I loved this location. The dock is nice to have. It is shared with others. It wasn't a problem this visit but could be crowded in season. The grill wasn't operable. Great house, just needs some TLC. Amelia, the host was great. I love the master bedroom and bathroom. Great view!

Serenity, Nature and Comfortable Living!

The home was just beautiful & equipped with all of the creature comforts one could desire. The sunrise views overlooking the bay off the large spacious balconies are just spectacular! The primary bedrooms are large and equipped with oversized showers and the kitchen is perfect for those who love to cook! We loved kayaking while both fishing and birding in this bay filled with sea life.

We had a wonderful stay! Great place for our older boys to fish in the bay or on the gulf side plus easy access to a day at the beach. The space and openness of the house along with seating was perfect for our family. Communication with the owner also was most hospitable. We would book again.

Get location and cozy

The house accommodated our family of 7 easily. The big, back decks were nice to sit on and relax while looking out at the bay. Beach access was close and we either drove or walked. We rode bikes everyday to the c-store and indulged in tub ice cream. We saw many large crabs as we kayaked thru the bay. Mgmt communication was swift when we had questions prior to arrival. We would not hesitate to go back.

Lovely Stay on Bay

This is our second stay at this property and it was great. Beds are comfortable, property was clean and views are fantastic. We loved the kayaks, paddle boards, and bikes. The only con is the water pressure. It has not improved since our stay last year. Overall, we would stay again.

Old house on the bay

The house was very very dated. It needs to be totally renovated from the ground up. Floors were uneven, mold was everywhere, no coverings on the bathroom windows or the bedrooms. The AC worked great and the views were beautiful.

The Best Beach Vaca Ever!

We loved this house and its location on the bay where we spent most of our time paddle-boarding, fishing, and sunning. Access to the beach is not across the road, but a ten minute walk. We will seriously consider going back to this house in the future.

Great stay!

We had a great stay at Trudy May's! Other family was staying at Amelia by the Bay house and it was a short walk to visit and get together. Our house was clean, bright and well equipped for our needs. Parking was fine, but we did make the mistake of trying to get our boat down the lane and turned around. With the narrowness of the lane and the new house next door, that is a real challenge. Otherwise, we had another great week at the Cape. Look forward to next year already!
