Our stay at Almost Heaven was AMAZING!!! The home is so beautiful and spacious. Our son and family joined us for a few days along with visits from our North Carolina kids and there was plenty of room for seven adults and six children. The kids loved the kids room with the huge bunks and stuffed sea creatures. The three king beds and queen were super comfy with lots of pillows and extra blankets. The kitchen had every appliance you could ask for. The garage was great for keeping the salt air off the vehicles. And beach amenities, where do I start? Beach chairs, toys, umbrellas, wagon, sun shades, the works. The fire pit was great as well as the charcoal grill. The very best part was the deck. Every morning there was a beautiful sunrise and then the dolphins. Even on chilly mornings we could sit in the sun and enjoy the waves and the ocean. Almost Heaven was a vacation we will NEVER forget.
