Vacation Rental Description
It is a big house with three levels, four bedrooms and sleeps 10 people comfortably. Three full baths, three living-rooms, outdoor shower, 3 open decks, one enclosed porch, children’s room, full modern kitchen, washer, drier, etc. Tastefully decorated. Ideal for a family with children or for two families to share.
You can see the sun rise from the 3 living-rooms and 3 decks with a 180 degree view over a beautiful 90-acre salt pond, and from two bedrooms through the floor-to-ceiling windows looking eastward over the pond which is often teeming with wild-life including herons, ospreys, crabs, geese, ducks, migratory birds, etc.; pond is ideal for canoes, kayaks, row boats, wind-surfing, and swimming from our private dock.
The beautiful ocean beach is in easy bicycling or driving distance but too far to walk for most people. It is about 1 mile as the crow flies but farther by road. The country club facilities are in easy walking distance (10-15 minutes walking). We have one ocean kayak for two people and another for one person; special conditions apply for people wanting to use the kayaks.
Our adjacent lot would be a beautiful venue for an outdoor wedding overlooking the pond.
No smoking, no pets, no loud partying.
The Salt Pond Community has an outdoor swimming pool with life guard and children's pool open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Also clubhouse, tennis courts, a half basketball court, exercise room, volleyball court, etc. There is an indoor pool open when the outdoor pool is closed for the season. All 10 to 15 minutes walking time from the house.
The golf course is a public course par 61, starting at the same clubhouse.
