About us

We are a small business, focusing on providing single family homes for short term rental in the Pooler/Savannah area. For work, I am a mechanical engineer, specializing in aircraft interiors. This allows me to enjoy traveling, motorcycling and 3 Cushion billiards. In a former life, we had a sailboat that we lived on for several years. Now we typically travel using our truck camper. A lot of our trips focus on some sort of motorcycle theme, either off-road or on.
