We rented this property for a work trip. The property was great. Loved that every room has its own private bathroom. Brock (the host) was very responsive and quick to respond. We needed to extend an extra day and he quickly made it possible and the communication was quick (responded within minutes). If you are looking for a vacation rental in a great, quiet, family friendly area, I HIGHLY recommend booking the Grand Sandcastle! You won’t be disappointed!

Perfect house for our family of 12. Kids were asking when we could come back before we left. Location was great and house was supplied with everything you could ask for. Only issue was there was not enough towels when we checked in. I messaged Brock and we had more towels delivered shortly after my message. Everything went smoothly and communication was great and responses were almost immediate. We are already starting to plan a return trip for next year.
