A wonderful space for a family Thanksgiving reunion especially for 3 families coming together from different locations. We loved the house and space in and above the garage, and enjoyed our ability to walk to the water, the quiet neighborhood, the fully-stocked spacious kitchen which was important for making dinner for 18! and all of the little things that made the stay comfortable, fun and relaxing. We'd definitely stay again.

The house is amazing & beautifully appointed ! Lots of space for our family of 14! Easy walk to the beach! Game room & exercise equipment were used by all especially the heated plunge pool. Top of the line appliances & 2 laundry rooms Everything was comfortable & conducive to large family groups.

The Idea House

Our family had a wonderful long weekend at the Idea House! It’s a beautiful home with so much to offer for a large family or group of friends. The finishings throughout the home are lovely, and there’s plenty of space to gather while also providing quiet spots for relaxation. The sauna, plunge pool, and game room were big hits with our entire family! We loved being able to walk to Agave Social for a delicious dinner and we enjoyed long walks at two different beaches—such a treat!We did find that some furnishings, appliances, and amenities could use a little attention to ensure everything is in top shape. With those general upkeep matters addressed, this home would be an absolute 10!
