Plenty of bedrooms and bed and two full bathrooms. Open concept living/kitchen/dining areas are great. AC in the garage was a bonus as was the firepit to make s'mores. Close to a boat ramp (we brought our boat) and beach. We were not able to use the private access trail to the beach as it had rained and was too wet and muddy so we had to drive to a beach. The only other negative was no wi fi and no cable TV and yet it is good to unplug! ##### Kim B.
