Rustic relaxation
4/5 We had a very fun and comfy stay on this truly unique island. Be ready for rustic and funky fun! The kitchen had everything we needed. Great gas grill. The screened in porch was one of our fav places to sit. We had a great time going back and forth between the sunrise and sunset beaches. We are so excited for our next opportunity to stay here.

Unique stay with some tradeoffs
4/5 We had the best weekend on this private island! But there were a few tradeoffs to renting such a unique property. The boat launch had very limited hours, so we had some issues with getting out boat in the water. Also, make sure you bring plenty of jugs of water with you since the water on the island is not good to drink. Additionally, there is no place to dock your own boat that is not on the island, which causes some issues for getting off the island to go to the store. So there were a few hiccups, but we still loved our stay and would consider returning!
