Great home, despite Hurricane Helene!

My family and I had this home booked from Sunday night through Friday morning. We arrived and spent Monday enjoying the home and beach, but then Hurricane Helene led us to have to evacuate early on Tuesday. Despite this sad evening, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Three-Quarter Time. The home was clean and well-equipped, and the pool was great fun for the kiddo. It's also quite dog-friendly. The owner even provided dog bowls for our four-legged boys. We will definitely stay again!
