This pace is my home away from home. We always stay in the bungalows and never want to have to check out. The staff is amazing. Definitely would recommend this place.

Cute little, no frills, 2 br bungalows on the bay! Fishing, swimming, water sport friendly. Some units accept pets. They have a playground.

A perfect little getaway place hidden right by the Mid-Bay bridge. We love to come to this hidden gem area whenever we get a chance. They got picnic tables where you can bring your own food and enjoy the view while having your meal.

Going to return every year. Trashy enough for me. Love it. Wouldn't change a thing. If I brought family then I would choose the bungalows.
