highly recommend this house! we had a wonderful time, the house is beautiful, great communication with the owner, so close to the beach we walked down there daily. we went grocery shopping when we first got there, and then never got back in our car. everything is within walking distance-but we never heard anything from the strip. i recommend Lisa's pizza for pizza and fried dough!! the house is huge! we had 17 people, 3 dogs, and a baby there and you wouldn't even know it! we all had plenty of room and plenty of privacy. the private, fenced in backyard is great-the kids and dogs could run around and we didn't worry about them. had a lot of family evenings out there by the fire. 2 gas grills that we used alot. great view of the fireworks too (every Thursday night). the house is beautifully decorated inside, and clean. everything we needed was there, from the pots and pans to the beach chairs and bikes. i cannot say enough nice things about it, this house helped make our family vacation wonderful. we're already talking about going back (you put in a pool and we'll book it now lol). thanks so much for letting us rent your house
