[quote=Anonymous]Hi again. If all goes smoothly, you likely won't be in PA until after 1pm, more likely closer to 2pm. An accident or a traffic jam and you can be delayed quite a bit. I'd ask if you could drop your luggage off at the house. At that point, the prior guests should be gone and someone will likely be there cleaning. I'd keep my electronics/valuables with me and leave everything else if I could. Then go explore the marina and have lunch, coffee, gelato. Then walk to the beach just to check it out, etc.

I think that'd be easier than trying to stop midway and dealing with all the luggage. With kids especially, I'd be more likely to do that than include an extra stop. And everyone will be energized to explore a new place that they'll be at for a week. I suppose if you could get a massive van for the entire crew and paid for the driver to wait while you ate. That could be an easy stop; luggage stays in the car (except for valuables!).

As for the golf carts, I'd see how long the walk is to the marina. To the extent there's action, or someone wants a latte, that's likely where you'll go. We'd have to be a good ways away to warrant a golf cart. PA isn't a pretty or interesting place to walk - but it is a pretty safe place to walk. Just have to watch for vehicles after dark. I haven't been to Catalonia Beach - have you confirmed that you can easily access it and it's free? We're a good bit south and I know that there aren't many access points to get to our bit of beach. And in some spots, it's only the narrow strip in front of the water that is open to the public.

I will also share that it's rarely been hot. It's never been D.C. summer hot or anything close to it. Last year, the pools were colder than the ocean and only got comfortable during the last few days of a 10-day trip - so you may spend more time at the ocean than you expect. The kids didn't mind the pool, but the adults did.

It does rain occasionally - we bring card games and arts and crafts for the kids for rain days or when we'd like them out of the sun. Also, PA is VERY casual, more casual than any other resort area I've been to. If folks are getting dressed up, I haven't seen them. T-shirts and shorts are fine for nearly all occasions. We'll dress up slightly for the holidays, but just a tad.
