Summary: We loved this rental. It was perfect for our family, including my older dog. The deck had views of the water and the house offered a nice grassy areas for our dog. The home was clean and very comfortable. I loved having an outdoor shower, esp for my 4-year-old who literally rolls in the sand when at the beach. We will likely return!
