Great location and good value. If you're thinking about checking out the 4x4 area this is a great spot. Just far enough down the beach to feel like you're away from the crowds, but not too far away from shops and restaurants. Plenty of room for a big family. The pool is a little on the small side, but as long as the weather is good you should be spending most of your time at the beach which is just a 2 minute walk away. Wild horses were close by every day and sometimes right in our back yard.

Questions & Answers

Ask a Question
Question:

Are there baby gates available at the house

Answer:

Kristin, baby equipment is not guaranteed for any of our vacation homes. Baby item requirements and recalls constantly change and many become obsolete after just one vacation season. In that regard Twiddy, along with our homeowners, made the decision to remove advertisement and discontinued the tracking of any baby equipment in our homes beginning in 2012. If you would like to rent baby equipment for your stay, Just for the Beach, Moneysworth, and Ocean Atlantic Rentals all provide baby equipment rentals. For contact information, please visit www.twiddy.com/activities/services.aspx.
