Lovely Place to Stay
We loved the spaciousness of the home and the proximity to the beach. The abundance of restrooms was ideal for our group of eight, four adults and four children. The jetted tub in the master was a blessing to these old bones. We greatly appreciated having access to the garage! The pond was full of beautiful fish, and the palm tree next to the balcony was home to a nesting pair of loggerhead shrikes, which especially delighted my granddaughter who is a budding photographer. If we could have stayed longer, we certainly would have. And we will consider this home for our future vacations. Thank you so much for providing a beautiful space to make wonderful memories.
