Safe and comfortable home and location!
My husband and I stayed in the home for almost a month. The location was perfect, especially with the use of the golf cart. If my husband had the car for golf, I could take the golf cart into town to go shopping or the beach. Also loved the convenience of having a washer and dryer downstairs, and being able to cook most of our meals in the home. Sheila was easy to contact and quick to respond to questions. We felt we made a great choice of where to stay!

Good Location
We were there during the Car show weekend. It is just 1 block off of Lake Shore drive. The Car Cruise goes around the lake on Lake shore drive and right by this location.
