Down By The Sea
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Splash your days away at Down By The Sea, a truly special home by the beach where the entire, fully-fenced backyard is your own personal waterpark! Enjoy a private swimming pool, a lazy river, a splash pad, and a soothing hot tub for hours of at-home fun.
Step inside to find three levels of living space that are ideal for several families to share. Up on the third floor, the open kitchen and great room feature natural log tables with matching chairs, benches, and bar stools, creating the perfect spot for a memorable gathering. After dinner, there's a 55-inch TV in the living room and a game room with foosball and air hockey to keep everyone entertained.
Spend your days swimming in the pool or soaking up the sun on the surrounding deck, where there's plenty of space to relax poolside, dine al fresco, or play a game of cards. The beach access path is close by as well.
Additional amenities include TVs in seven of the nine bedrooms, Blu-ray/DVD players, free WiFi, a gas grill, basketball, tetherball, horseshoes, a children's climbing structure, and a firepit to curl up next to in the evenings.
