Great place for a large family
Avalon was the perfect place for my family of 13. The backyard pool and swing set was a blessing. It provided options for my 5 younger grandkids when we were preparing for the beach. The 3200 sq ft home gave us privacy at the end of the day. The walk to the private beach was easy!
Sharon K from Stuttgart, AR - Stayed June 2024
Thank you for sharing your experience at Avalon. We’re so glad this spacious home was the perfect fit for your family of 13 and that the private pool and backyard swing set were such a blessing for your grandchildren. It’s wonderful to know the easy walk to the private beach and the home’s comfortable layout provided both fun and relaxation for everyone. Ocean Reef Resorts truly appreciates your kind words and we would love to welcome you all back to the beach again soon.

We LOVED it!
We loved the house and location was not far from the beach. We also had our own pool, I know next time to get it heated, but other than that we all loved it. Ocean Reef was very nice and helpful with us. My kids didn't want to leave! We will be renting that house again when we go back!
Jerome D from Hazelwood, Mo - Stayed April 2021
Thank you for the fantastic review of Avalon. We’re thrilled to know you loved the home, its convenient location near the beach, and having your own private pool to enjoy. It’s wonderful that our team at Ocean Reef Resorts was helpful throughout your stay and that your kids didn’t want to leave—that’s the best compliment of all! We look forward to welcoming you back to the beach and to Avalon again on your next visit.
