Wonderful property! The garden out back and the screened sunroom were beautiful. We spent most of our time out by the pool when we were home. The beach was walkable from the house and usually uncrowded. Highly recommend this home and we would love to come back again!

Family vacation

This was a perfect house for a vacation with our extended family. It was easy to spend time together in the common areas, pool and nearby beach. But everyone also had their private space. A hurricane hit in the middle of our stay so we were thankful for the generator

What the doctor ordered

Perfect home and location for us to spend family time during the holidays. Quiet neighborhood very close to the beautiful beach. Well equipped and comfortable with every detail throughout (nice beds, linens, even makeup mirrors, plenty of kitchen supplies and good quality too). We hope to visit again during the warmer months.
