The community's soundside pier is right behind the house, perfect for fishing, crabbing or simply watching the breathtaking sunsets. A reverse floorplan, west-facing sun deck and windows galore make the most of the soundfront location. After a day at the beach or exploring the resort, come home and gather in the comfortably furnished, open-concept great room. It leads out to an expansive waterfront deck with a bubbly hot tub.

The mid-level consists of four more bedrooms (including two ensuites), three of which provide direct access to the soundfront covered deck.

Use the kitchenette for convenient snacks and drinks, and the additional full-size refrigerator for storing extra groceries or the catch of the day. Animal House is equipped with an elevator, ideal for guests with mobility issues. Skip the stairs and use it to send luggage to the upper floors.
