The central yard and pool with cover are nice features of the cottages for groups. The neighborhood beach is beautiful. There were some issues with the units (part of one stove not functional, hazy pool water and one bedroom A/C unit making noise) that if fixed prior to our arrival, would have made a more pleasant stay. Renting a golf cart was useful for getting small children and supplies to and from the beach.
