This house is really perfect for a big family getaway. The pictures don't do it justice at all. Its a wonderful beach house (not too far from the beach), 3 levels, a great kitchen/dining/living room area that is way bigger than the images online look. 2 king bedrooms, both with en suite bathrooms, and 3 rooms with queen beds, one room having a bathroom attached as well, the other two sharing a bathroom in the same hallway on the third floor.
The house is perfectly stocked with pretty much anything you need that's not perishable. We even needed to use a tape measure for something, and there was one! The back patio is perfect to hang out in the evening, and the grill is clean and well stocked with propane to use as well. There is also a great porch on the top floor overlooking the neighborhood, with a little bit of a view of the bay on one side of the porch.
Its a short 15-20 minute walk to the private beach that the neighborhood has, depending on which way around the lake you walk (there's no parking at the beach, so a short walk suffices). The private beach encloses the Bonnet Shores beach club, which unfortunately there's no access to, but the beach is well groomed, soft sand, and decent waves for the bay. The only downside is no public restrooms.
As for Joy, she's a fantastic host. Excellent communication, anything I needed or was worried about she answered almost immediately. The instructions and information for various things in the house were easy. She does a great job of thinking of everything so we don't have to.
Incredibly pleased with how our little vacation went with the family, and we hope to stay there again soon!
