Great Beach House!

My husband and I loved this community and house! The complimentary golf cart was amazing going to and from the beach! The house was very well stocked as well. The beds are a little uncomfortable and small but overall we would stay again!

Family beach getaway

Loved the community and the amenities. Even with the rain, we still was able to go swimming. Enjoyed golf cart rides around and found a swan nest and many turtles. The house was very clean and the dogs loved the fenced in yard.
