This house is beautiful and wonderfully designed. We had 30 plus people here with a large range of ages and it worked out great for us. My father needed the elevator and that was one of the reasons we picked this house and that worked great for him but also for all of us bringing up all our stuff and groceries, etc. The patio underneath was awesome. The kids played there forever. The rocking chairs on the porch was the perfect morning or evening get together for those not sleeping. There was always a breeze. We couldn't have asked for better weather even though it rained a few times. Having the patio underneath the house, plus the design of the house itself was perfect when that happened. Having all the hoses and showers downstairs was also a huge blessing. The bed and pillows I had were so comfortable. We would tire ourselves out at the beach every day and then play games in the great room. It was wonderful having everyone together under one roof and yet having some privacy also. The owner/manager was very helpful and accommodating. We had to drive a long way because we have such a big family and still growing and so we may not be able to do this again, but it is not because of the house or the accommodations. We loved our time here and we got to explore another great area of the Texas Gulf. Very nice!
