Lovely House!!

This house is fully equipped to help you enjoy your stay. We were 7 older adults, and we all enjoyed the accommodations. Not only is the house fully equipped, but so was the garage, with an extra refrigerator, cooler, beach and pool gear, fishing gear, ping pong, axe-throwing (not real axes), bikes - you name it. We were equipped for anything we wanted to do. We had one of the pools in the complex very near to our house and it was wonderful relaxing during the afternoon there. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the little frogs that visited us each night on the patio! This house is great for adults and families, with enough room for everyone!

Beautiful home, great amenities

Our group had a wonderful time here. Three families with young kids had lots of fun at the pool, and thoroughly enjoyed all the toys and games that were at the house. Our trips to the beach were made easier with the beach wagon, chairs, and coolers. The adults loved the ping pong table and ax throwing. Lovely house with nice amenities, would stay again.
