Re: Possible VRBO scam

Cathy manages several properties on the island.

As a matter of fact, she represented a property that we rented last year and the year before. I'm sure everything is fine.
She's either very busy or feeling the pull of "island time".

Re: Need a Jeep Rental

We also have used Bougainvillea the past two years and couldn't be happier with the service.

Re: Stone Harbor Cottage question

Do you like the sound of roosters in the morning? ....I mean really early in the morning? :) Hmm....not particularly, but how unbearable can it be?
