This location is perfect. you have the canal on one side and the ocean on the other (very short walk). Because the beach water was too cold, the kids enjoyed fishing every day. The particular enjoyed fishing out on the desk at night! apparently that's when the cat fish were out. Recommend a light on the dock. The house itself is beautiful. But you can see it's age. I think a good maintenance man can fix all the little issues. loved the kitchen. could definitely use some pot holders. would have loved to use the dishwasher, but no detergent could be located. Hot water in the evening was an issue, definitely had a few showers on the cooler side. the property is fenced however with no gates, we could not let our dog off the leash. The parking is an issue. THe pics don't explain it well. but you're in an ally and getting three cars (SUV) to park was difficult. The next house is really close to you so not a lot of elbow room. Again difficult to discern that from the pics. This is not a deal breaker, just not what I was expecting. Best to back in down the ally so you can get the car out easier. On days where the water was calm a paddle board or even a canoe would have been fun. I guess we could have rented one. Beds were comfortable. Liked the spa. I think someone else mentioned in prior review the controls are difficult to operate. You can really only see them when it gets dark. Not sure if that can be fixed. But the spa was enjoyable. All in all a good time and nice property.
