Loved It!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our short family vacation over the holiday weekend! Our boys had a blast catching fish right off of the dock while we relaxed in the shade. The house was very well equipped with everything we needed, more than most other rental homes we’ve stayed at. The beach is very close, but we mostly enjoyed being in the vibrant canal community. The hosts were outstanding and allowed us some much-needed flexibility on check-in day. We loved our visit to this little piece of paradise and look forward to returning!

Nice little canal home

Overall it was good, Teramar Beach is a great location with close proximity to the Beach which is just across the street from the neighborhood and the home is right on the water so you can fish/crab from the back porch. It's a good ways west on the island so if you needed something from in town or wanted to do something else, it's a good drive but otherwise we were very happy with our stay.

Perfect for Fishing

The property is in a great location further down the strand. It is well equipped in the kitchen and linens and towels. Also the dock is clean, with a fish cleaning station, hose, and chairs. Fishing from the canal is the highlight. We highly recommend going to the local bait shop. Owner was flexible and responsive!Just be aware that the bedroom with the bathroom attached is not connected to the other part of the house. It only has an external door that leads right out to the dock. (Which worked great for our early am teen to fish). The laundry is also separate in its own space with only an external door, on the bottom floor. This worked for us, but might not be the right set up for others.
