Plenty of space to park boat and trailer in yard. Male and female beach cruiser bicycles included for meandering through town. Brand new dock that is 12-foot on the T. Catch crabs in the crab pot supplied and fish off the dock. No swimming due to oyster rocks in the marsh and shallow water. Bring your kayaks for marvelous adventures through the marsh. By boat, it's only 20 mins. to get to the Cape and 7 mins. to Wade Shore and Shackelford Banks. Gas up the boat around the corner at Boathouse marina. Linens supplied; smoking outdoors only.
