Great place
Great place to stay for a beach trip. Check in and check out was smooth. We had to communicate with property manager for a question and he was able to get back to us very quickly. We brought our 6 week old baby and our dog. The property had a pack n play for our baby and even bowls and a kernel for our dog. The outdoor area was also a hit for our family. Would recommend to anyone

Family Time
We went for a short family vacay to celebrate birthday & anniversary. The house was beautiful, spacious & had everything we needed. We did however think we were “on the beach” as the ad said. It’s about a 10 minute walk to the beach. I wish we would have knows this earlier as we planned to be on the beach. But we did love the house. The hot tub, grill and whole backyard area was a hit.
