Steps from the beach- we could see our shade structure from the deck! We loved proximity to everything…walked the beach to the pier, rode bikes to dinner, and the ocean with views right in front of us. The college kids enjoyed the privacy of the downstairs while the high schoolers had the top floor. Parents stayed on the main floor, and although it was not an en suite bath, this floor plan was perfect! This lovely home made it easy for everyone to have their own space and access to a shower. The upstairs kitchen is small, but lovely. The fridge was comedic in that it would suction closed so tight the second time you tried to open it, you had to put a lot of muscle into it; not a problem…just funny to watch unsuspecting newbies! Built-in prank! Kept the cooking simple, as the cookware was basic. Glad we brought our own paper goods. Great communication, darling house, fantastic week. Also, beach chairs, boogie boards, and sand toys provided were very appreciated! Thank you for sharing your lovely home! I loved walking up the drive after an adventure away and seeing the cared for yard, awesome downstairs porch (with party lights!), and the red house numbers that match the Adirondack chairs on the deck. Curb appeal makes a good vacation great!
