"The beach house is perfect for large family reunions. We had a reunion of 45 people. It accommodated my group adequately. Not enough beds, but we are happy with sofas and airbeds. We brought our own airbeds and sleeping supplies. The beach is so close, everyone can walk there. The living room hold everyone for group events. We had so much fun with charade games."
