This home is everything you expect and hope for in a beach property. Clean and feels plush and high end yet still very comfy. Kitchen has everything needed if you want to cook in and there is outdoor grill as well. Having large bedrooms with their own bathrooms is a dream for vacation stay! Access to beach is perfect and there is a great beach cart and chairs provided. The pier on bay side is steps away and also fun for fishing or great if you have kayak.
