Golfing Girls Stay

Very nice property. Accommodating 8 ladies perfectly. We loved everything about the house however the shower water pressure was a bit less than desirable. The pool was clean and relaxing for us each day after golf. The beds were extremely comfortable! Would definitely stay here again.

Coffee with the dolphins

We seen dolphins in Little bay every morning and a few times in the evening. The house was everything it says it is and more. There were no life jackets for the kayaks. A quick trip to Walmart however remedied that. We fished a lot and caught a wide variety of fish. All in all it was a wonderful home, beautiful and comfortable.

Sheppards by the Sea is a fantastic property. Highly recommend and will stay here again.

This property is exactly the way it was described. The house is very clean, every bed is comfortable, and it is well stocked with supplies. We ate almost every meal at the house. Cindy communicated promptly for checking in and offered her availability if needed. The pool was nice and clean and the view of Little Bay was awesome. We were very happy with this house and look forward to coming back.
