It is down a private road that leads to a small row of homes located on the bank of the river. We are the last home in the small group, so you have a good bit of privacy. Limited parking on site. One vehicle is fine, two small vehicles would work but may be tough to turn around. Max two vehicles allowed on site. Guests will have full access to the home. Custom door lock code will be provided before check-in. Owner's storage closet and outside shed are locked and used for storage only.

The second floor bedroom and river access steps are not safe for unsupervised children and should be used with caution. The river is fairly shallow near the beach, no steep drop-offs, and suitable for swimming, fishing, and enjoying. We recommend water shoes of some sort as there are shells, fossils, small river stones, and other natural river items (mostly near the water line). The home is accessed by Bay View Place, a private dirt road shared by a few other homes. This property is the last home on the road. You can park on the property behind the home or under the carport.
