The Nixon home is simply beautiful - the decor is high end, but very comfortable. Some highlights for us: a great kitchen for cooking while still all being together (at the great table or counter bar), the back deck for coffee and quite peaceful mornings, 99 stairs to the water makes for some great exercise, the cove where the cabin is located is so peaceful and perfect for paddle boarding, the living room was perfect for everyone to sit around and play games, the dinner table was narrow which made for a more intimate setting for conversation and eye to eye conversation with our kids and their friends.
Amanda was very responsive (i.e. 9 PM "Hi - do you have a cupcake pan?" Minutes later, "No but look in cabinet for cake pan"). The home had everyone you need - Keurig machine stocked with coffee, awesome classes for beer and cocktails & awesome cubes in the freezer, bathrooms stocked with great products to use, kitchen has everything (well except cupcake pan :-) ).
There is not much around town, we brought all the groceries in and really never left. Marina is a bit far away, so would be better to have a boat, but was not really an issue.
We would highly recommend this home! Thank you Nixons for making your home available.
