The property is located on the opposite side of the street from the beach, is pet friendly, and has three levels of living space, with the top third level as the main living area and kitchen. We anticipated a long walk or drive to beach access but were so please to see it is literally only a couple of houses down where we got public access! The beach was not crowded and we felt we could safely leave our chairs and umbrella there for a short while and go back to the house. Traveling with multi-generations and small pets, we were uncertain as to the layout of the house being ideal, but EVERYONE loved it! The grandchildren thought is was cool to have the kitchen at the top. There were many balconies to relax on. The home was super clean and one would never know pets were there! We had 6 adults and 3 kids under 8, plus three dogs each under 5 pounds. There was plenty of bedroom space and table space for the family. The only glitch was a broken oven, but the owner supplied a counter top convection oven, which sufficed. The coffee pot was a Kuerig, so plan ahead for that. The kitchen was well stocked, otherwise. We are going to reserve ahead for next summer and rent this home again! My grand-daughter, and the rest of us, can't wait to come back!
