Just one mile from the soft white sands of the beach, or a quick five-minute ride in the included golf cart, you’ll enjoy the best of 30A living. A washer and dryer, four adult bicycles, furnished patio, gas grill, and private wooded backyard that borders the peaceful Port Washington State Forest all make this home a perfect mix of comfort and convenience.

The primary bedroom is located on the first floor with a private ensuite bathroom, while two additional bedrooms upstairs share a Jack-and-Jill style bathroom. A cozy bunk nook on the second-floor landing provides extra sleeping space and a fun retreat for younger guests.
Within the Highland Park community you’ll find a sparkling pool and inviting hot tub surrounded by tropical landscaping, perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun. The pool is seasonally heated, and with the included golf cart and four adult bicycles, getting to the beach or exploring the neighborhood is both easy and fun.

Great place to stay! Everything was clean and in order. WiFi and tv’s worked well and golf cart was a nice plus. Not much for staple supplies (salt/pepper, etc.) but I suppose that’s the way it is nowadays. Would stay there again if in the area.
