Very comfortable house with lots of shared living space making gathering with friends and family easy. The yard is great for games. The private beach is beautiful and perfect for families, no rough waves. However, it is not an easy walk with kids and beach gear so someone has to drive and drop off then walk/run the mile back, then do the reverse to get everyone home. The twin beds in the third bedroom are not great for kids due to a large gap between the head of the mattress and wall because of the shape of the bed frames - we had to put the mattresses on the floor. And bring a baby gate for the steep stairs if traveling with young kids.
