This property was beautiful and well maintained. The property was in a great quiet neighborhood with a community pool that included a splash pool that was perfect for my 1 yr old granddaughter since she was not a fan of the sand at the ocean. We had no issues finding a park mobile spot at the beach access points as long as we arrived by 10am.- it was only a 5 minute ride there. I reported a couple issues upon arrival that had no effect whatsoever on our stay but they were quickly addressed by Jeremy who is both kind and always available. I highly recommend this property!

Jeremy was perhaps the most responsive host I have ever worked with. No fuss - no muss. The house was beautiful and perfect for our stay (and our dog). The backyard was fenced in and that helped quite a bit when it comes to traveling with a dog. Clean, welcoming, spacious and a great location. Thank you.
