We enjoyed the close walk to the wonderful Beach. All the needed equipment for beach was included for our group of 8. The only down side was unfortunately the whole week the neighbor was having construction work from 8AM to 5PM next door and the sound of masonry saw was very loud all day. Some of us had to be on-line during couple of days and the loud sound made it hard to relax and enjoy. ##### Siamak D.

Aug 6, 2015 #### The Perfect Family Vacation We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful beach home. We had seen pictures on the website but, honestly, they did not show how beautiful this home really is. It was the perfect place to enjoy our time with our children and grandchildren. This beach home was fully stocked with all of the amenities that we could possibly need. The grandchildren loved playing in the tree house, making S'mores in the fire pit, playing ping pong, and watching their favorite show on the big screen TV. We enjoyed walking to the park each night to watch the sun set. The beach was just a short drive away.
