This was an absolutely wonderful property to stay at. The pool and hot tub are the stars of the show, but the house is well laid out and designed. It felt homey and not sterile like some other rentals we've stayed at. The walk to the beach is simple, and we found the daily low tide to be magical. We would definitely stay here again!
