Great stay!
This house was so cute and had so many nice places to sit outside including a front porch sitting area and a downstairs sitting area with a blackstone grill. The house had all the beach stuff you would need except a larger cooler. The back yard is huge and was good for our dog but it is not fully fenced in, so if your dog will run away, you cannot leave them back there. The house had a fully stocked kitchen and lots of movies to watch in the chest. The house also had lots of beach towels and beach chairs which came in handy! I will definitely stay here again!
