The layout of the house is perfect for multiple families. The flexibility of having the beach nearby (with golf cart transportation), a private pool, and a dock for fishing makes for the perfect family home with something for everyone.

Awesome Home
Great stay. The home is very spacious and laid out well. Huge deck with great seating. Kayaks, golf cart, bicycles, and everything you need for the beach is available. We will be back. Thanks!
This property was great! We were just one block away and the golf cart made it so convenient to get all the people and gear over to enjoy the beach which had the softest sand and amazing view! And having your own pool was a bonus when you want to just lay low. Check in was smooth, the space was super clean and they had everything we needed. Totally recommend and would definitely come back!
We loved our stay here! So close to the beach and on the bay. The pool was nice. Everything was very clean and we loved that each room had its own temperature control. There were also so many beach chairs/ toys.
Property was as advertised, my grand kids had a great time in the pool and finding crabs in the mud when the tide was out. Loved the proximity to the beach for the sunsets!
Overall, we had a very positive experience during our stay. The property’s location is excellent, with convenient access to the beach, and we particularly enjoyed the pool, despite the light intermittently blinking and not remaining on. The decor throughout the home was thoughtfully done and contributed to an inviting atmosphere. The availability of the golf cart was also a notable and appreciated amenity.There are, however, a few areas that would benefit from attention. Several of the lounge chairs were missing slats and are in need of repair or replacement. Additionally, the absence of a ladder on the deck made launching the kayak less convenient. The storage bin was overcrowded with outdated pool floats and rusted beach chairs, requiring us to clear it out in order to locate a couple of usable chairs.
We loved our stay! The kids enjoyed swimming in the pool, the house had plenty of rooms to spread out, loved taking the golf cart to the beach and nearby restaurants. Overall it had everything we needed and more and was very clean and well kept.

Family trip
Great location and great home. Would love to stay again!
We had 9 people at the beach house and had space for everyone. The kitchen included everything we needed for cooking and the dining table was great for our large group. The pool was nice and warm and clean and there was plenty of outdoor seating. The host brought over a propane tank so we could use the outdoor fire. The beach was very walkable and the bikes and golf cart were an added bonus. The one downside was the beds which were too soft for our taste.
Amazing location! We enjoyed the pool deck and its great water views. It was an easy walk to the beach, but we also really appreciated the golf cart. The layout inside also made it easy for us all to gather for meals and board games, plus easy spots for the kids to play, craft, or chill!

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Oct 2025
From the owner: We appreciate your kind review, and we are glad that you and your family enjoyed your time in our home. We also love the pool deck, great views, and golf cart.
We loved the house; there was plenty of room for all of us to hang out together. We loved the big couches and the fire pit at night, as well as the large dining room tables, both inside and out. We were all able to sit together easily, which made for great bonding times. Our host was very responsive to any of our needs and could not have been more helpful. The bedrooms were roomy and comfortable. Close to everything in the area. Highly recommend!
Everything was great except the tub in the master bedroom. It was so slippery you could not shower in it. The floor was humped slightly and the middle was like ice. Not good for the 68 yr old taking a shower. Tbe rest was wonderful.Plenty of beds for 9 adults. No bunkbeds. We fished off the dock.we loved using the golfcart,what bonus! Great French bakery up the street! Saw the Christmas parade from the front porch. We added our own holiday cheer!

AWESOME!!!this house has it all.golf cart was so handy!! must stay..
Great location, great amenities. Highly recommend for families as it comfortably fit all 11 people with plenty for all to do- swimming, biking, golf carting, fishing, etc etc.
We loved this house. It was perfect for our family of six adults and six kids ages 11 months to seven years. It was like new and very clean. A very easy walk to the eighth Street public beach access, or use the fun golf cart. Kids loved the pool. Very nice quiet neighborhood.
This property was amazing. Spacious enough for 10 people. Extremely clean. Beautifully decorated. Modern appliances. Great heated pool area with lots of seating both in the sun and shade. Nice propane fire pit. The property manager is wondergul.
Property was in a great location. Close to beach, icecream, bars and shops! Everyone had a great time fishing off the dock, swimming and relaxing by the pool. Would definitely rent this property again!

The property was fantastic! Location provided easy access to the beach, restaurants and nightlife. The golf cart was a nice plus. House was very clean. Pool was warm! My family had a great stay.
