Summary: So much to do and relax doing at the Dolphin! This home was amazing, from lounging in the pool, playing pool and shuffleboard table, to fishing off the large back dock. The evening sunsets were stunning over the large width of water. Close local restaurants were both great to eat at as well as the marina views were perfect backdrops for pictures. Definitely going on our repeat stay list!
