House is perfect for multi families and kids. Beautiful inside and out. Private beach is a very short walk. Multi level decks, a dining table that seats large groups and more sofa furniture than we could fill. An A stay!
Okay

It wasn’t the worst stay I’ve had. But the photos of the listing are very deceiving.

Our hot tub did not work for the first two days of our trip, but it did work on the third. We had no idea the hot tub is only heated from 6 PM to midnight, which wasn’t a good fit for our group as we are morning people we asked about switching the hot tub hours to morning hours, but was told it was a 50 a day fee. There are tons of chairs and wagons to go to the beach, but unfortunately no beach towels.
