Dune trip

12 adults for a joint bachelor/ Bachelorette party for the weekend. More than enough beds and bathrooms for all of us plus 2 patios to hangout on. Ideal location for the dunes and close enough to bars if you have someone willing to drive. Access to lake and kayak included was great as well. Had a blast and would definitely stay again if dunes are a repeat vacation!
