We absolutely loved this property! It was close enough to the beaches but far from neighbors! My boys had a blast fishing from the dock, catching many different fish and crabs, and loved having a fire at night. I loved that this place had almost everything we needed, and the inside was beautifully decorated! We will be coming back! ##### Lindsey K.
