Great location, plenty of space!
We had a wonderful visit, and the house is great. Some of the carpets are getting a bit old, but otherwise the house is nicely updated and very clean. The main living area is wonderful. The views of the bay are fantastic. The 7 minute walk to the beach (plus sand dune) is a bit far with equipment, but nobody complained when we parked near the dune. There is no parking lot, so it's not clear that you should do that.
The only suggestion I have for improvement, and the only reason I would look elsewhere before re-booking next time, is the lack of beach equipment. There were no bicycles that we could find, and there are essentially no usable beach chairs or umbrellas. I do not know if this is the standard in this particular rental market, but if it is, changing that would be an easy way to distinguish this property! Having to arrange our own rental equipment was an irritation. I'm sure chairs and umbrellas get broken by renters, and that it is a frustration to maintain good equipment, but as a renter, I'd gladly eat that cost in higher rent, even if the house had to be re-stocked each season.
With little kids, I'm not sure we'd have used the bicycles. But we did expect them to be there, so you may as well remove that from the amenities list.
Renting equipment was not *that* big of a hassle, so while I would look around next time, it is quite likely I'd go back to this property again.
