Very comfortable
Very comfortable property, if you’re into fishing it’s has a pier and bench right at the water, my husband really enjoyed that!
I visited the happy tarpon and I was pleasantly surprised with how clean and nicely decorated everything was. I fished 90 percent of the time i was there. My friends and I had one of the best time fishing. I would love to visit the happy tarpon again. Keith was a great host and always responded to our concerns.
