Beautiful view of and walkable to Good Harbor beach which was a great benefit as with the new beach parking protocols you have to sign up 10 days in advance to go on the weekend! Another Huge plus was even though we had to check out at 11 we could stay on the property to use the pool all day and stay parked there to walk to the beach!
