Loved it!

My family and I loved this property! The house was quaint, clean, and full of character. The beds were comfortable. The beach access was right down the road. There were plenty of other children for mine to play with who were also staying on Vacation Lane. I would absolutely recommend it! I thouroughly enjoyed the nightly bonfire at sunset.
