The location was great but the property was not so great
The cabin was very small, with very uncomfortable beds. The floors were dirty, and the shower was extremely small and full of mold on the bottom. It was not worth the price we paid. I was not happy with the cabin itself. The TV didn't always work, and the internet was mostly off and on. Not a great cabin for the price.

Close to beach
This property was just what we were looking for. It was close to beach, restaurants and had all we needed. TV channels and Internet weren't really great but we had family game time instead
