This property was perfect for our family’s extended vacation. Our pup was welcome and there were plenty of places to walk him. The beach and pool are a big plus. We love the area and there are lots of places within walking distance via the beautiful shore. The property managers are great as well. Would definitely love to come back.

We do list under amenities that there are quite a few steps leading to the townhome entrance, but it may have been missed if you didn't read through the whole listing. We list this so that people know it is not handicap accessible. So sorry for any surprise there though! We hope you will come back and rent with us again soon!
