We (3 families with kids of all ages) stayed here for 4 nights for a mini family reunion - it was a wonderful time! The main house and back cottage was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed! The location was perfect as well, being seconds away from the beach. We had a little issue getting the lockbox to open during check in, but we eventually figured it out. Check out was a breeze! I definitely recommend staying here! ##### Stephanie R.
