Summary: SUPER! We were a family of 13, 5 kids 3-12 and 6 adults. The house is old but not yucky old. It is great! Fully stocked, body wash, shampoo and conditioner in every shower including the TWO in the garage! There is tons of beach equipment including sand toys, beach chairs, boogie boards AND fins! The kitchen is also totally stocked with cooking stuff and eating stuff. The TWO refrigerators were great too! All rooms had nice beds with clean linens and PLENTY of bathroom towels AND beach towels! The description is correct about the railings and we were “all hands on deck” when the 3 year old was up and about but never had a problem. The tv room has a ping pong table also! And on top of all that, the location is super outstanding, easy walk into town and right on the beach. We would and just might return yearly!
