"Our stay in this beautiful home was relaxing and peaceful. The house is on a quiet street in a golf community.

"The townhouse was very clean and in very good shape. We really enjoyed the screened in balcony area. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed. I do prefer a coffee maker over a Keurig, but it makes coffee just fine. As stated in the description, linens were not included but we used gale force rentals which is located about 5 minutes away so no need to pay extra for delivery.The neighborhood is quiet and nice, and only a 10 minute drive to the beach.
