loved the home, and the location. Loved the wooded lot and hope it stays like that. Home is just right for what we want for our vacation.

Overall this was a terrific vacation home that my family enjoyed very much. Excellent location only a 5 minute walk to the beach. Private lot with plenty of amenities. The house has absolutely everything one will need to enjoy themselves. Living area and kitchen are on the top floor so if stairs aren't an issue for you, this is a great home for a great value!

We were looking for a smaller home, as it was just two couples staying, and this house worked well for us. The wooded lot was shaded, quite and very pleasant.

How long does it take to either walk to the beach or drive?
Stephanie, it would take approximately 5-7 minutes to walk to the beach from this home. There is a community parking lot about halfway between this home and the beach access. Please view our "Where's the Beach?" map to see an aerial shot of the community.

Are we able to add linens later for a subset of the days? (I may have my sister join us for 1-2 days of our stay.)
Yes Patricia, you would be able to order them when you know for sure, or even pick them up at the office, and the linen rental fee would be $40.00, plus tax, for one room, and it would include a towel package!
