Great House for Extended Family Gatherings

We loved staying here! The house was conveniently located and easily accessed. Ocean View Park next to the house was a big plus for our 9 year old granddaughter. There was enough space for 7 family members to spread out downstairs in the living room, music room, dining room, kitchen, and morning room, where our granddaughter slept. We would definitely recommend this property!
