A vehicle is recommended for your trip but not entirely necessary if you plan to enjoy just the "beach house life." Most local destinations can be reached by golf cart, and we offer a FREE SIX PASSENGER GOLF CART exclusively for our guests. There is public beach access within walking distance, and many other beach access points along Scenic 98 that can easily be accessed by golf cart.
