The property was great for our dogs with lots of shade and a screened in back porch. The osprey nest and 2 nesting osprey in a pine directly across the street were an unexpected thrill!Hope Savage with Sandcastles Vacation Rentals was fantastic in responses to a few requests during our stay….. friendly and very responsive! 5 stars!
