This is a great home for a larger family. Our group of 11, ranging in age from 1-68 had plenty of room. The grandkids loved the pool! Being towards the end of the road, and with the private beach access, there were never any crowds. The only thing that should be made more clear: while there is access to the private boardwalk to the beach, it is not clearly spelled out that our section of beach is to the left at the end of the boardwalk. There is a sign big we did not notice it until our fourth day there! With the Deer Lake State Park signs at the end of the boardwalk it was a little confusing initially. But once we figured that part out the rest was good. There are beach chairs and boogie boards on the back patio along with a folding wagon. I do recommend renting a beach wagon- the large wheels made a big difference on the sand! There are two bicycles at the house but one has a flat tire. Overall this is a great house in a great location. The kitchen is stocked with a large variety of cookware, plates and glasses, and serving bowls. All you really need is your sunscreen and beach towel!
