A short walk inland on the Scenic Trail leads over the canal and directly to the kayak and canoe launch. Among the other inland entertainments are the splash park, skate park, squash and tennis courts and playground equipment. The king bedroom and one of the queen bedrooms open onto waterway views. Two sets of twin-over-twin bunk beds and one bedroom with a double bed complete the sleeping accommodations for up to 10 people. Every piece of furniture and decorative accent is top-quality. Each room is a delight, from the vibrant blue rocking chairs and side table on the front porch to the tastefully colored duvets on sleigh beds in two of the rooms and both sets of white bunk beds covered in fanciful ocean-themed linens in a sea-blue room. The bedrooms are carpeted and gleaming hardwood floors cover all other areas, with the exception of tile flooring in the baths and separate laundry room. A patterned blue and sand colored rug in the living room seating area compliments the like-colored sofa and chairs. Flat screen TVs are in all bedrooms and there is wireless internet access throughout. The kitchen is not just state-of-the-art functional, but an eye-pleaser as well. Granite countertops on every work surface pick up the color and theme of the bathroom vanities. A mini-tile splash guard behind the stove adds the perfect accent to this exceptional kitchen. The dining area seats six, with an additional outdoor table and four chairs on the large screened back porch. Stroll out to enjoy the marsh views on the dock added in 2020\. A convenient enclosed hot and cold shower is located under the back deck. Generous windows throughout the house offer views of gently swaying trees from virtually every vantage point. Though pets are not allowed, please note that occasionally a dog may be present during an owner stay for those guests who are allergic to pets. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet -
