Perfect beach vacation

We had a great family vacation at “on the rocks”. Location was great, just north of town with a beautiful lake view. Very clean and lots of little extras - snacks, s'more's, popsicles that the kids loved, coffee and creamer, beach toys and towels, etc. The hosts thought of everything you could need for a home away from home! Thanks for a great stay, we look forward to visiting again!
