Amenities
This place had everything we needed as a large family. All older children and we all enjoyed our stay very much!
We will return to this location! Great location and a very responsive host. With some TLC, minor maintenance and some updates, I could see this being our go to spot for family vacations at the beach. We stayed here for my little sister’s bachelorette trip. The house was wonderful and fit our large group perfect between the 2 houses. The heated pool was sooo nice since we came in February so it was too hot outside and the large yard gave us a great spot to hang out and relax all together. I only gave 4 stars because the outdoor projector screen was torn so we could not use it which was a bummer and a few other things outside that were a little beat up, but otherwise it was wonderful and the hosts were awesome and so responsive! We would definitely stay at this house again
