The Sandy Pelican Beach Home- Sleeps 8, Pet Friendly, Near beach, EV Charger

Make The Sandy Pelican your home base for your gatherings. The house has everything you need to make your vacation a time to remember. A 30 second drive to the beach, or just a short walk, you won’t be overrun by cars getting to the sand. The paved driveway allows you to bring down your RZR/UTV trailer and park it in the driveway.

You can relax at the downstairs bar and fire pit, eat at the picnic table and cook on the charcoal grill.

You’ll love the hot water outdoor shower.

Bring your pets to hang with you at the house and the beach.

We provide internet access for all your devices and the smart TVs to bring your streaming services with you.

The laundry room is good sized and away from the kitchen and living room, so you won’t be listening to it when using it.

The house has all the amenities you’d expect so you can travel light. It includes all linens, beach towels, games, kitchen utensils, and things you’d expect to be there at your home.

Amenities include:
- Tiki Bar
- Picnic Table
- Deck chairs
- Fully equipped kitchen with induction stove and oven works as an air fryer
- Grill
- Fire pit
- Outdoor shower, with hot and cold water
- Washer and dryer
- Ceiling fans
- High speed internet
- Cell phone charging station
- Smart TVs
- Level 2 Electric Vehicle Charging Station - J1772, if you have a Tesla, bring your adapter. No additional fee for charging.

Keyless entry, code provided before check-in

Access to lift is unavailable, sorry.

Plenty of parking on-site.

While we aren’t local, we are a phone call away to help with anything that’s needed.

Things to note:
We want you to have the best experience possible.
- No smoking in the house. If you choose to smoke, you will need to cleanup after yourself
- At least 25 years old to book

We do provide you with starter supplies, including toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dishwasher detergent, and laundry detergent. If you need more than we supply, the Big Store is available with those additional items, which is only 5 minutes down the road.

NOTE: There are two cameras on the property. One is facing the cargo lift and cargo control box. It is on the eastern most post.
The other is above the garage door facing the driveway. Both are clearly visible. If you'd like to know what they show, please email us. We can send a screenshot.

The Perfect Summer Getaway

The Sandy Pelican was the perfect place to stay with family. The neighborhood was quiet and clean, and the beach was very family friendly. The hosts provided everything you need for a home away from home, including cute tumblers and cups to use during your stay! The outdoor space was so fun and unique. The front porch was an amazing place to spend a hot summer afternoon- fully shaded and constant breeze! Would definitely recommend a stay here for a great time!!

Amazing, Perfect and Beautiful

So glad we chose this cabin for our mini pre-summer vacation. Location was perfect. Street was quiet and pleasant. Straight shot to beach access. Cabin had everything we wanted. Fresh, clean and ready to relax. We highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a peaceful home away from home. Our favorite part was the battleship game we hadn’t played in years!!! We will be back or be neighbors one day!!

Perfect weekend getaway

There are good rentals and there are great rentals. This is a great rental. Instructions for check in and check out were clear and we had no issues getting in. Host was quick to respond to our questions and get us our access information. The booklet they provided was great as well for getting the most out of our stay and seeing some local favorites. The house was clean and cozy and even better than the pictures show. We look forward to staying here again!

A Fabulous Beach Home with WONDERFUL Owners!

This home is a dream. Immaculately clean. With white walls, high ceilings and plenty of windows, it is exceptionally bright and cheerful, open and spacious. If you want to feel like you're truly on vacation, free from stress and problems, this is a great place to stay. I slept like a baby, and could even breathe better than usual! The beds, sheets and pillows were so comfortable I took photos of the tags so I could buy them for my own home. The nearby beach was fabulous and not loud and chaotic, as some beaches can be. We rented a golf cart, which was a GREAT decision that really made the trip. I will not soon forget those sunsets, cruising the beach in the evenings with the family and our little dogs. Speaking of dogs, they LOVED this place. There is a fenced in area at the bottom of the stairs, so you can let them out to do their business without worry of them running off. And there is a sliding gate upstairs to close off the stairs completely, if needed. The kitchen had everything we needed, and everything worked! The induction cooktop was fun to play with, and the air fryer oven setting made excellent, healthy crispy chicken wings. No issues with wifi or cell coverage- both worked better here than they do for us in Houston! Last, the property owners could not have been friendlier or more responsive. They are incredibly kind, just straight-up good people. They handled every inquiry with genuine concern and grace. So refreshing! We can't wait to return to this house!
