August 2025 Vacation
My wife, a mutual friend, and I stayed here for roughly a week. We brought along our two pups, and had a blast! The outdoor shower was perfect for washing off the sand (for dogs and humans alike), and the balconies were perfect for allowing the fabulous view of the sound to be truly appreciated. Several times, V-280s flew overhead and their presence was a welcome add to our dinner conversations. The kitchen is spacious, the fridge is the perfect size (large), and the beds were extremely comfortable. The washer and dryer came in clutch, as did the beach chairs. Although we did not end up using it, there is also a hot tub in a screened in porch. All in all, we had a great time at this spot and would definitely go again!

We enjoyed our relaxing vacation in this beautiful and very clean home. Cute coastal decor and the king beds and couch were comfy. The beautiful views were the best part! Pictures don’t do it justice…so much better in person! We also enjoyed sitting outside on the high quality deck furniture. We loved the serenity and seclusion of this location! I also had the pleasure of meeting Jim who was very helpful and friendly.

Sunshine on the Sound
Simply put, it was great. I stayed three nights and it had everything I needed. The hot tub and the grill were an added plus. The location at the end of the street but right behind the marsh was perfect. This last comment had nothing to do with the owner, but be prepared for the loud boom sound that happens throughout the night and sometimes in the day. It woke me up in the night and shakes the house. This may be in part to the close proximity to the military base. Overall it was a wonderful stay.

For the Family who Walks Together
The atmosphere of your stay can be easily taken in from the drive. With its beautiful placement at the end of a slow going; end road, and its stilted design distinct to that of coastal homes. You are welcomed to this private beach by home, with an elegant walk around porch. Overlooking the inner channel and its elegant botanical parodise and all of its wildlife to behold with three distinct vantage points to choose to view. A comfortable and private heated outdoor shower and spa area, and for the anglers a easy spot to work and clean your day's catch. However the family can rest assure the inside has all the needs from home already to be put to use. Take a minute to familiarize with the home and you'll find most everything is waiting. From blenders in the kitchen to wifi on the television to plenty of shampoo and conditioner in the showers. This three bedroom 2 bath is a fantastic place to spend you've vacation. Just a short walk and a good conversation to the beach and you'll find that Mom and Dad can take comfort in the family friendly speeds of the dead end roads. Just mind the tide. Just because you're stuff was in a dry spot when you went for that beach walk, doesn't ensure its dryness..or placement upon returning. However in case of the inevitable laundry run. No worries the washer and dryer are there at your convenience and with detergent at the ready. Just be sure to rinse them out well of any beach debret before running a load. Enjoy, we did.
