Great place with all the supplies you need!
There was a good amount of dishes, and all the cookware you could need to cook anything. Place was clean. Kids shower has terrible water pressure but that’s my only complaint. I’m sure the owners will have fixed it by the time you read this! Great communication.

Clean, luxurious, and extremely cozy!
I stayed here with my family of 11 people and we all had a great time. The house is very clean, cozy, and extremely comfortable. Everyone felt like they had their own space. The house is equipped with pretty much everything you need. The only thing i would recommend is a blender. We wanted to make smoothies and milkshake's for the kids, but they didn't have a blender. But other than that everything was great.
The weather was stormy one day when we were there and we couldnt go to the beach so we all went down to the garage and played games. It was nice having a relaxing and fun atmosphere for the kids and adults to keep us occupied while we waited out the storm to pass.
The owners of the house are extremely great hosts as well. Everytime we messaged them about a problem they replied back asap.
For example: The grass in the yard was pretty high when we gotnthere and we messaged them and asked if we could mow the yard to eliminate the mesquitos and they replied back asap and told us that the lawn was supposed to be mowed on thursday but it was raining and it had been raining alot and thats why it wasnt mowed. So they got someone out there super quick and fixed the problem for us so we could enjoy the rest of our stay there.
I highly recommend staying here for your vacation home. You wont be disappointed.
