Serene Home with PRIVATE Pool - Near Beaches - Dog Friendly - Firepit&Large Yard
Relax and build memories with family and friends at this country home vacation getaway with its large yard, private pool (unheated), and dog-friendly policy (unfenced yard).
Spend your days lounging by the pool and soaking up the sun, or take a short drive to the beach to enjoy the sand and surf.
When the evening rolls around, gather around the outdoor firepit to roast marshmallows and stargaze. There's also a grill BBQ for cooking up delicious meals in the great outdoors. Located just a few miles from the beach and boat ramp!
