Nice house with beautiful view of the beach and great access to the beach as well but if you're coming with a large group be sure to bring extra toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags. We ran out 2nd day of our trip. Also be sure to bring laundry detergent because you will need to wash and dry towels at least once while staying. There are not enough towels for a large group.

Bring extra towels and washcloths. Bring extra toilet paper and paper towels and trash bags. We loved our time there! It is a public beach so get your vehicle or chairs out early to save your spot in front of the beach house. Kitchen is very well stocked. Ice cream man drives by twice a day! We didn’t need any maintenance. Front door and back door are tricky so get instructions on how to open.

Great house and location. Shouldn’t have to bring extra things listed like paper towels and toilet paper, cleaning supply for kitchen, extra bags for trash. Bath soaps too small and too few (from hotels somewhere) Poor communication with management company No WiFi (owners info did not work) the LAST day a handyman came and gave us his way to be connected
