Amazing place. Hidden gem. Own private beach.
Absolutely amazing property. Everything felt premium and the place is massive. Well designed and architected. Inspired all 14 of us who stayed to do some renos on our own properties.Coastal beach is a short 9 minute walk down a private trail and was isolated and beautiful. Had the whole beach to ourselves practically.Hidden gem. Wonderful place. Highly reccomend.
