About the host
Hosted by Joel Kuszmaul
Hi, my husband and I are both college professors and like to travel to the National Parks with our 7-year-old son during the summers.
Why they chose this property
It will take you 2 minutes to walk from the door of the house to your sun umbrella on the beach. Which is great because there are very few places to park on the Island. We are so close to the ocean that we can go there and back to the house if we forget something or want to take a nap before more beach time. Our house is sunny and spacious, sleeps 8 and bring your dogs.
What makes this property unique
There is room in the driveway for 4 or 5 cars.
