Update from the owner

Hi Erin

You can come earlier than 4:00 and park in the driveway and go to the beach. There is an outdoor shower where you can change and a bathroom accessible from the ground floor laundry yard. If you have perishable foods, the kitchen is usually cleaned first so you could unload perishables into the fridge. I just ask that you take care to not interfere with the cleaning team. The rest of the house will be ready no later than 4:00 and I’ll give you a brief welcome tour then. 

Instead of keys there is a master lock combination dead bolt. The combination is 2015 and the directions are posted on the door. 

In case you haven’t yet retrieved  information from the Hospitality Manager, I’m including driving directions and what you don’t need to bring [Jim: on another page]

See you on Sunday

Directions to 8304 Ocean Drive

Directions to the house - provided by Don Don.

The address IS 8304 Ocean Drive, but that won't help too much. Since Ocean Drive doesn't really go in front of the house.   The house faces the ocean and is located between 83rd And 84th streets. You enter the house from 83rd by going in on a driveway that leads to the parking area behind the house. 83rd  Street is entered from  Atlantic Avenue (US Route 60) which parallels the ocean/beach.  Atlantic makes a sharp left turn at about that point and then becomes Shore Drive - also US Route 60. To make matters more confusing, a smaller road takes off from that corner to parallel the ocean and it is now Atlantic Avenue.  83rd street terminates shortly after you pass the driveway to the house. It is replaced by a sidewalk leading to the beach. Good luck. See you there.

The roads near Sandswept are a major speed trap. Observe the posted speed limits! Be especially careful to reduce speed from 35 to 25 by the time you get to the 25 sign!

Parking when there are more than three cars

Come all the way in the driveway and turn around so your car is facing out. Park along the wall on the right [as you are going out] at the widest part of the driveway. Three cars can park here comfortably while still allowing access to everyone else.
