Everything is as described and every detail is considered to make the stay comfortable, resourced, and fun for all ages. The golf cart was a game changer for our family with 3 generations on the trip. We were able to get to and from the beach, local stores, and restaurants with ease. The house has an old school video game that entertained the grandparents WITH the grandkids for hours. The distance to the pool was directly across the street and the grills worked great for a large cookout. Communication for check in and check out were quick and easy. We will definitely be back!
