The property was perfect for my crew of 9, which included two young boys and two teenage girls. We enjoyed the beach, the boardwalk carnival, and the fort fisher aquarium, but the best times were in your backyard. Young and old enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Only suggestion i have is to add some full size beach chairs for us old folks.
