This property is AMAZING! It has everything you could ever need for a relaxing, luxury vacation, even with the kids! It was immaculate and the interior was obviously renovated to feel luxurious without sacrificing comfort, which I consider critical! Typically, I will spend every waking hour on the beach during vacation but because the house was SO CLOSE (as in approx. 6 steps to the sand and maybe 40 to the water) I felt like I could enjoy all the beauty, breeze, smells and sounds of the water from the comfort of the back porch swing when I wanted. It was so close and the view is completely unrestricted. My kids could play on the beach while momma relaxed in the swing with her glass of wine! (We've all been there and needed that ten minutes of peace at the end of a day and feel confident our children are being safe)
We have stayed multiple times in this area and have never enjoyed a house the way we did this one. As a former restaurant owner, few houses have functional kitchens that are well equipped for heavy use. NOT this one!! It had everything I would expect to need and not the "cheap" pans many owners use! High end, heavy duty kitchen necessities!
We loved biking to Seaside and playing in the lake which is like getting a two for one deal on vacations for those who prefer shallow, calm water!
I normally don't write reviews. I hate to have to explain my personal expectations, which my husband say are unrealistic, to potential future guests, but I honestly jumped at the opportunity to give this house the praise it deserves! The best vacation for me is when I can have my whole family in the same house for a week without any complaints!! NOT ONE! Needless to say, we have already booked this house for our girls trip and next family vacation - Thank you for proving my husband wrong and meeting MY EXPECTATIONS OF AN AMAZING VACATION HOME!!!
