May 2019 Stay

My small group of family and friends really enjoyed this very comfortable house. We had plenty of room and spent most of pur days in the pool which was an added plus being that the temperature was a hot 97 - 103. It was memorial day wknd and the beaches were crowded so we grabbed some frozen drinks from 'Wet Willie's' and came on bck to relax, grill, eat and relax in the pool. I felt totally comfortable in this neighborhood. I enjoyed taking my scooter out on the bike trail. People on bikes and joggers waving and friendly made me feel happy. In close proximity to bars, grills, restaurants and a grocery store is near. The mosquitos had a good time on this Atlanta Ga Peach so bring some off. I would definitely come back again to this rental.
