The food was excellent at the Rusty Nail. I highly recommend the caesar salad. The entertainment on Sat. evening was also great and was nice to be outside with the firepit listening to llive music. The room seemed newly remodeled and the 2 bunk beds was great for our small daughter.

We had the best time at tge Beach Shack. We loved being across the street from the beach and having a pool with ample lounging chairs. It was also so lovely to have the Rusty nail w/ the fire pits and live music. The smell of the wood burning fireplace at the restaurant was also delightful. We already rebooked for next year since we had such a great experience.
