  Phil G from Carmel, IN recommends this vacation rental

  This home was perfect for us. It was beautiful, well designed and laid out, clean, and well prepared for our visit. The pool and pool area were especially enjoyable, as was the area overlooking the pool. The walk to the beach was easy and we made the walk 2-3 times a day. Additionally this is a nice safe neighborhood. We had occasion to talk to Anne and Julie and both were congenial and helpful. The period to rent again in one year expired on us; otherwise we would return in 2025.

  Gerald W from Salem, OR recommends this vacation rental

  We had a great time. Weather was awesome, activities were mostly figuring out which beach or nature spot to visit and the location was superb. The pool was very nice. It would have been more convenient to have a bathroom on the first floor. The appliances and kitchen essentials were more than expected and excellent all around. Only the master bed was a little hard but our guests liked the other beds.

  Larry R from Lakewood, NY recommends this vacation rental

  great, had use of the garage, the outside grill new and supplied with protane, would be a excellent place for large family. We had the ability to have our whole family at one time but schedules of them did allow more than 2 at a time to be there. The management is excellent.Everything a large family would need was available.
