Great family getaway!

This property was great for a weekend getaway. The house is beautiful and spacious. It had a relaxing vibe and enough space for us to spread out and just lounge.The host is very thoughtful about what people might need. There is a washer and dryer and every drawer or cabinet is labeled. I found that very convenient.The house is located in a great spot. It was easy to get to the casino and very close to good breakfast spots, shopping, and mini golf.I would recommend this house to anyone.

2 Family Spring Break vacation

The check in process was very simple, as was the check out. House was well supplied with paper towels/dish soap/detergent/towels. The only thing that might be nice to include would be a toaster in the kitchen. We made do and just made toast in a pan on the stove, and it was fine. Everything was great! Would stay there again. We were a party of 8: 2 families that consisted of 2 sets of parents, 3 teen boys and an 11 yr old girl.
