The house was absolutely gorgeous, however, there were spiders and cob webs all over the porches and balconies. Definitely spacious as pictured. The beach was fairly close, definitely a drive if you plan on taking all your beach gear, chairs, coolers, and umbrellas/tents.(which alot was already there for our convenience) The clubhouse was fairly close but all closed after labor day, so you had no access to the pool. Plus you now have to make reservations for the pool/ fitness center/boat launch so you can't just walk in and enjoy the amenities.
Beth was very responsive and helpful which was nice and the house was well stocked with everything you would need. There were stores for shopping, food, and groceries very close or even walking distance.
Biggest complaint was that early check was offered for 1pm, was told the housekeeper was running a little late (which was fine because so were we) however, we arrived at almost 4 pm and the housekeeper had just barely started cleaning. She did not finish up until after 5pm so we could not get our stuff in and situated while she was there with her kids. The kitchen was left unclean with crumbs and dirt on the floor and grease marks all over the microwave and countertops. While I understand things happen, it was frustrating as after a 13 hour car ride, I didn't expect to get there and spend our first night cleaning and tidying what should have been done prior to us being there.
Definitely a great place to stay with a big family.
