The family fun begins right at ground level! Colorful, inviting, and fun, this space screams "fire up the BBQ, grab a slice of watermelon, and take a seat" at one of our family gathering tables or outdoor living areas as kids and grown-ups alike will enjoy hours of outdoor games like Hook & Ring Toss, Twister, Tic-Tac-Toe, Checkers and EXCLUSIVE Chalk Art Gallery where they'll be excited to create their own custom Baywater Landing vacation logo, and more! Play Badminton on the lawn, grab a beach chair and sink your toes into the sand along the beach as you watch the kids swim and splash in the shallow waters of the bay, or bring your own fishing poles and fish right from the dock (please note that the dock is shared with the next door neighbor); try out our kayaks - all without leaving the property! Back at the retreat, come together with family and friends around the fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs as you watch the vivid sunset, gather twigs for a bonfire to remember, and bring your guitar for some good old-fashioned family fun.
Drive down the long driveway and park in the 2-car garage, driveway and circle drive. As you approach the house, you will be greeted by a sprawling 100-year oak where you'll recall childhood memories of tree-climbing as children flock to the tire swing. Nearing the front staircase, you'll be drawn to the captivating views of the bay and dock, beach, and incredible outdoor living area which includes a hand-painted mural featuring local hotspots that will serve as your on-site, life-sized vacation guide, plenty of fun games and more! Going up the staircase, the double front-door entrance welcomes you into your luxury coastal retreat. You will see an elevator on the property, there is to be NO USE of this elevator for ANY REASON. They foyer sets the tone for this beautiful home which has been professionally decorated with modern art, soothing color palette and beautiful and bold patterns for a distinctive interior as an incredible backdrop for a truly memorable vacation!
