Beautiful spacious home with great deck facing the water & large yard. Beautiful sunsets. Clean and modern. It was easy to get to all attractions & we appreciated being in a quiet & less congested area. Could use updated fry pans & a fan or two. The entry keypad failed to work on 2nd day but thankfully the mgmt company responded quickly. Highly recommend!
