Welcome to Sandy Shorts — BeauCoast`s Finest Address for Families Who Want Beaufort Done Right.
BeauCoast is one of the Crystal Coast`s newest and most thoughtfully developed resort communities — a planned waterfront neighborhood in Beaufort where Taylor`s Creek runs along one edge, Trader`s Lake sits at the center, and the amenities stack rivals what most standalone resorts charge separately for. Sandy Shorts is a three-bedroom townhouse at 112 Blue Bill Way, right inside the community — close enough to everything BeauCoast offers to feel like a resort stay, with a kitchen and three bedrooms and a six-seat golf cart that makes the whole thing feel like home.
The golf cart is the detail that elevates this from a comfortable townhouse into a genuinely different kind of Beaufort experience. BeauCoast`s internal paths are made for it — the pool, Traders, the pickleball courts, the Waterfront Park, and the kayak barn all reachable without a car. And when the group wants to go further, the golf cart takes you straight to Downtown Beaufort`s Front Street waterfront without touching the main street traffic. Wild horse tour ferry, waterfront dining, the NC Maritime Museum, Front Street stores — all of it accessible by cart from your garage.
Three bedrooms upstairs handle seven guests comfortably. Beach essentials are already in the garage — chairs, towels, body boards, and beach toys ready for the first morning. The Cabana Café at Traders opens Wednesday through Sunday at 8am for coffee, fresh baked goods, and grab-and-go breakfast. The resort pool has in-water lounge chairs. The Taylor`s Creek pier has wild horses visible across the water most mornings. The fire pit at Traders has lakeside seating for the evenings.
Sandy Shorts is the right answer for families and modest groups who want Beaufort`s best — the waterfront, the downtown, the resort conveniences, and a six-seat golf cart to tie it all together.
???? The Golf Cart — From BeauCoast to Front Street Without a Key
At a glance: 6-seat luxury golf cart · Supplied with your stay · Golf cart charger in front compartment · BeauCoast paths completely accessible · Downtown Beaufort Front Street reachable by cart · Avoids main street traffic entirely · The feature that connects everything
The six-seat golf cart at Sandy Shorts is not a novelty. In Beaufort and inside BeauCoast, it is the right way to move — and it is included with your stay.
Inside the community, the cart connects every conveniences without a car: the pool, Traders Lake, the Cabana Café, the pickleball courts, the exercise center, the kayak barn, and the Taylor`s Creek Waterfront Park are all reachable on BeauCoast`s internal paths. Load the cart with your group in the morning and the beach chairs from the garage and the whole day organizes itself.
Outside the community, the cart takes you straight to Downtown Beaufort`s Front Street — no main street traffic, no parking search, no circling the waterfront. Wild horse ferry, waterfront dining, ice cream, live music, the NC Maritime Museum — all of it accessible from the cart seat. For a group of seven in a golf cart on a Beaufort evening, the town opens up in a way it simply doesn`t from inside a car.
????️ BeauCoast Resort Conveniences — The Stack That Makes This More Than a Townhouse
At a glance: Resort-style pool with in-water lounge chairs · Trader`s Lake with kayak launches and fire pit · Taylor`s Creek Waterfront Park with pier, crabbing, wild horses, and dolphin sightings · Two pickleball courts · Exercise center · Cabana Café at Traders · Clubhouse with event lawn and full kitchen · All supplied with your stay as a BeauCoast guest
BeauCoast is a planned resort community and the luxury list reflects that. As a Sandy Shorts guest you have access to the full stack — all of it included, none of it requiring a separate fee.
The Resort Pool
A private resort-style pool exclusive to BeauCoast members and guests — in-water lounge chairs, an outdoor shower, and poolside seating. This is not a shared public facility. It is a private community pool that your group accesses with your BeauCoast guest status. Pool access is via the east entrance inside BeauCoast.
Taylor`s Creek Waterfront Park
The standout luxury in the entire BeauCoast portfolio. The Waterfront Park sits on Taylor`s Creek with exclusive boat access, kayak launches, a manicured garden with waterfront seating, and a pier where you can crab, fish, or simply sit with a glass of wine while wild horses graze on Carrot Island across the waterway and dolphins move through the creek below. Parking at the kayak barn. This is Beaufort`s most iconic natural experience — and Sandy Shorts guests have exclusive access to a private vantage point for it.
Traders and the Lake
Traders sits on Trader`s Lake with waterfront vistas, kayak launches for a spin around the lake, and an broad back patio with a fire pit and seating for the full group. The fire pit is available to guests — the key is inside the workout room in a box to the right of the entrance. Key goes into the fire pit to activate it. Note: a key fob is required to access the workout room.
The Cabana Café
Located in the Traders building, the Cabana Café is open Wednesday through Sunday from 8am to 4pm — grab-and-go coffee, fresh baked goods, local favorites, meals, and essentials. The golf cart makes the morning café run a two-min. trip.

The main entrance opens into an open-concept living room and kitchen — light-filled, well-organized, and set up for the group to gather naturally.

Garage access from the first floor is where the beach essentials live — chairs, towels, body boards, and beach toys ready for any beach day. The back patio off the first floor has a comfortable outdoor couch and table — the morning coffee spot and the end-of-day wind-down space.
