    Second time in this neighborhood and first at this house! It was great! Love the neighborhood lots and the pool, which it's right by. Downside for us is crossing 30a to get to the beach. With little ones this feels really dangerous, even on the golf cart. We spent lots of time at the pool for this reason.

    We had 7 boys with us - this place was so incredible. We had plenty of space, plenty of bathroom space, being across from the pool was so easy for these mama's. Beach access was fantastic - the golf cart made beach days super easy! The ice chest was a fan favorite for everyone. We will be back!

    We had 7 boys with us ranging in ages from 6 to 14 - this place was so amazing! Pool access was right across the driveway and so easy, all the neighbors were so nice and it felt like the most amazing little community - safe for bike rides, walks, etc. Beach access was super simple and plenty of room, the golf cart making our transportation and beach loads easy. Thank you for such an amazing stay!

    Wonderful property very close to pool. We loved the quiet neighborhood, with central green space for the kids. The gold cart was a lifesaver! Beach was amazing. We did not realize that a beach setup came with the property until after we ordered our own separately. One more trashcan would be nice for a property this size. Great AC and comfortable beds. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

    Have stayed in 4 or 5 different places on 30a the last couple of years and this was by far the best. Quiet, private and adorable house with all the amenities. Property manager was very easy to work with and responsive when needed! We all loved it. Thank you!
