Beautiful Condo in a Perfect Location!
The condo was beautifully remodeled as stated with a great deal of thought placed into storage. We took our kids and their friends, and there were enough amenities to keep everyone happy and entertained. The boys enjoyed feeding the turtles and ducks as well as fishing in the lake, and the teen girls had a blast hanging at the beach and pool. We would certainly come back here again and would recommend it to friends and family.

Best family vacation
This rental was perfect for a family! Everything was so clean and nice. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could need! Our children really enjoyed having the pool right off the back patio! The beach is just a quick 3ish minute walk which was absolutely perfect. The location was perfect and such a nice neighborhood. We would absolutely love to stay here again next family vacation :)

Absolutely perfect
I chose this location based upon previous reviews. If you are reading this, BOOK it! The townhome is perfect for all ages as I traveled with my children (under 10) and my parents who are in their 70’s. The townhome was very clean and had all amenities we needed during our stay. The swimming pool and beach are conveniently located near home. The owner was pleasant and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this home.
