Dunes getaway

This house and yard are beautifully appointed. The living space has wonderful features, comfortable furniturec and a kitchen with all that one needs. Beds and baths are comfy. The outdoor spaces are wonderful and we loved the screen porch. Nice neighbors, too. Saw many deer and a woodpecker! Easy access to the dunes!
