Overall, we love this house. Good sized rooms, really nice porches and decks, the putting area is a nice addition. It would be nice to have a grill. Over time things wear out or get "old" and this house is about ready for a few minor updates. Things like a new coffee pot, new silverware, better pots and pans, ceiling light bulbs that don't flicker when on dim, new carpet runner on stairs. All minor things that would not take a lot of money to update, but would enhance the vacation experience. But again, we would recommend this house to our friends. Good sized rooms, great porches and decks, great views both of the ocean and the sound.
