Please note: There are sandbags located in front of several homes along the northern end of the island, including "Cool Story", that may or may not be exposed. These sandbags are in place to prevent further beach erosion. It is important that you do not climb on the sandbags. Although beach access may not be directly in front of the property – it is a very short walk to the nearest public beach access. Please enjoy the views from the balconies and don’t forget to get up early at least one morning to enjoy the amazing sunrise!

Smart TVs require guest logins to access subscription apps. Owner does not provide access details. 
Please Note: WiFi signal strength is NOT guaranteed at your rental for remote work or remote learning. We are located on a barrier island and do not have cellular towers on the island. This, coupled with the increase of guests in our area, creates an inconsistent cellular signal that is outside of our control and therefore, compensation is NOT guaranteed.
