Having the pool right across from the house was great for the kids. While it would have been great to be in walking distance to the beach or a beach view, we were glad that the drive to the beach only took five minutes. The house has all the necessities one needs on vacation and we enjoyed our time there. ##### Julia R. Stayed 5 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cara A.

The house was clean and the owners thought of everything we could possibly need/want on our beach vacation. Lots of little touches like sound machines in all the rooms, all the necessary kitchen appliances, plenty of towels and comfy beds. The kids loved the TV's in each bedroom. The pool was directly in front of the house and the screened in porch was a huge bonus. ##### Cara A. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ginger S.
