Perfect Stay for Navy Bootcamp Graduation

My family and I stayed in this beautiful home for my son’s Navy bootcamp graduation! The home was perfect and accommodated my big family! My 4 yo niece and my 16 yo daughter loved the big bunk room! Loved the master bedroom. All the beds were so comfortable. The TV in the family room is HUGE, and made for perfect family movie night. I highly recommended this home! It’s so cozy! My family and I will definitely stay here again when we come back to the area!

Great group getaway!

The house was very spacious and excellent for a group. The bunk room was perfect for kids and even had toys. Each room was comfortable and everyone was able to get privacy when needed. The basement is also finished (not pictured in the listing) and was a good place for the kiddos to play. Would definitely return!

Amazing Stay

This beautiful property exceeded our expectations. Everything was amazing. The house was very very clean and spacious for our family. Our son graduated Navy Bootcamp and booking this rental allowed us to have quality family time with our Sailor. Our Sailor had a warm, clean place to come and relax. We honestly felt at home. The kitchen is big which gave us plenty of room to cook. The babies had fun in the playroom and we enjoyed playing games as a family. We built ever lasting memories here and I’m very thankful for Chris and Dominique. Their communication was spot on! You will not be disappointed.
