Spacious and clean!

We absolutely loved this house! It was the cleanest house we have stayed at in Bear Trap Dunes, and we have been vacationing at Bear Trap dunes for the past 10 years. It was bright, cozy and comfy without being over furnished. The high ceilings and open concept made the space feel huge. We hate leaving our dog Lola behind when we go away, but sometimes the pet friendly homes are not very clean or nicely decorated. This home was perfect! We will definitely be renting it again soon.
