Great for a Large Family, Close to the Beach, & Dog-Friendly
Overall, this was a lovely place to stay and had pretty much everything we were looking for in a rental. It is so close to the beach (2 minute walk max) and the actual beach was so private (other people were so far off in the distance on either side of us every time we went to the beach). Our party consisted of 5 adults and 2 kids (under 5). This property was great! One couple stayed in the downstairs area. One adult was in the first bedroom upstairs, the 2nd couple was in the master upstairs, and the kids were in the additional bedroom upstairs. We also brought 3 dogs with us.
This property does have a fenced-in backyard. The pictures do not include it (I would recommend adding pictures of the fence), but it does have one. My only problem was that there was no way to get to the fenced-in backyard from the main house (the upstairs portion). The upstairs and downstairs are also not connected at all (on the inside). I was staying with the 3 dogs upstairs and there was no way for me to just open a door or walk downstairs directly to the fenced-in yard. I had to walk them out the front door, through the (unfenced) front yard, and open the gate to the fence every time I wanted to let them out. I would recommend that if you bring a dog, stay in the downstairs area (which has a door to the fenced-in yard). We did also have an issue with wasp nests. There were a total of 12 nests that my brother-in-law ended up (safely) disposing of, but not before my dad got stung by one.
Another thing that I wish I had was some kind of lamp in the first bedroom upstairs (only had overhead lighting) and some kind of shelving or dresser (I used the bathroom closet to unpack my clothes). Otherwise, everything was great!
