Family reunion

We chose this property for our family Christmas (about 30 of us)! The house worked really well! Loved it, enough room in the back yard for games and got to watch dolphins each day! A short drive to a nice public beach! Great host! A child broke a window and we had no problem working with them to have it repaired! Covered by trip insurance!

Great old house right on the water

Great old house with updated kitchens. Had a group of 17 and we comfortably fit. Plenty of TVs and separate spaces to gather as a group and have some alone time. Recommend if you need a big space for a big group.

Vintage property

It was nice to be able to block off sections of the property for privacy. Needs some better cooking pans but we made due. Fishing was great from the pier with shrimp and crabs.
