We had a great time at this property. The location was great with easy access to the beach. The bedroom/bathroom setup was perfect for the 16 of us. We loved hanging out on the porch throughout the day and evening. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location to beach

We had 5 adults and 3 children. The home was very spacious and was perfect. Had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Kids really enjoyed the bunk beds. Nicely decorated. Had a beautiful porch with a nice view of the ocean. It was just steps from the beach. We had a wonderful time. Would definitely recommend.

Best place for large families!

We had everyone from ages 2 to 65 with us and this was the best trip and best house to accommodate our needs! The house was so clean upon arrival. It had all the necessities needed. The decks were very safe for our little children! The space was very well utilized to accommodate large family! Everyone slept comfortably in their own bed without needed to bring air mattresses. Access to the beach was super easy and so convenient being able to drive there. We will definitely book again when visiting!
