Close to beach and park. Had everything you could want like pool and outdoor shower just needs a refresh. Beach rentals do take a beating and you can tell with this one.
We enjoyed staying at the house and used all the amenities while we were there except the basketball hoop. When we arrived at the property we found that it was damaged and called the office to report our findings. Unfortunately, it was never fixed
