Spent a long weekend here with our adult kids and grandmother. Three generations. The house was perfect so us. Having beautiful weather helped as well. Those who didnt want to go down to the beach had a beautiful view of the ocean from two side of the home. Large windows and expansive views. The house had a grill which we used. We did not use the beach toys/chairs as we had our own. We would definitely rent the home again for the space alone.
