Family get away
My family of 4 and my elderly parents and dog stayed in this beautiful home for a fun Thanksgiving break get away. We enjoyed cooking in the big kitchen, hanging out in the backyard, sitting by the fire pit, going in the jacuzzi and playing cards. Such a beautiful home. Everything was clean, beautiful and nice. My daughter used one of the many surf boards at Mission Beach. Thank you Helen.
