Summary: This was our second year spending a week in Ophelia and it was fantastic! The kids enjoyed the beach and pool as expected. The adults were able to have peace and relaxation in the quiet neighborhood. Mark was responsive and gave a quick update on the house amenities. We had a blast! Thank you!
