Summary: We loved our stay at Whispering Waves! One of the best stocked rentals for amenities we've encountered yet! The view of the water was wonderful and for our 4th CK visit was it's usual relaxing vacation. First time visiting friends of ours also loved the house & the area. The place was very clean, comfortable as well as lovely. Just make sure you are traveling with someone who can lug heavy coolers / luggage up lots of stairs.
