This house is beautiful and has so many amenities for families. We traveled with our three adult children, two spouses and three grandchildren ages 6 yrs, 3 yrs and 15 months. There was sufficient room for everyone. The porch is spacious and is a great place to hang out, read and eat dinner. The kids loved the swing set which has a rock climbing section, slide, baby swing, regular swings, monkey bars--everything they love. There is a great hammock and Adirondack chairs in the yard. The yard is large and the kids enjoyed playing soccer. The house has everything you need in the way of linens, towels, beach supplies, toys, kitchen tools and even a clothes line. My one concern I had when booking this property was how close it actually was to the beach and whether it was really "walking distance." I was relieved to see that it is very, very close and was easily walked by even our 3 year old. There is an outdoor shower that made cleaning up after the beach an easy task. The beach itself has a rocky area, but as you move closer to the rest room facilities, the sand is soft and beautiful. We were there over the 4th of July, so there were distant fireworks for several nights, but otherwise, the area is very quiet. You can walk to the grocery store, a terrific bakery/cafe and downtown. The owner was very, very responsive to our questions. We loved, loved, loved our stay and wholeheartedly recommend this property!
