Beautiful property with beautiful views

We enjoyed our stay at the mid century modern 3 level house. The view of the ocean and river was lovely, and we loved having a lemon tree in the yard. The pool was nice even though it was too cold to use it. The house could have been a bit cleaner upon arrival
