Great resourt for families with small kids, a playground and a community beach really helps to foster new friendships. Kids also got into fishing this week. With the stores nearby (walking distance ) we bought everything we needed for fishing, including kids fishing rods.We also rented a pantoon boat which was a fun experience for our family. The host is very friendly and responsive, a few minor inconveniences got fixed right away.

Sandpiper Cottage

This was a fantastic getaway for us. My girlfriend has stayed at Shady Point Resort a lot growing up and it was a great surprise for me to bring her and her daughter back for a week. The cottage was perfect and our stay was memorable. Can wait to come back again.... thank you!

Nice Area

The area and location were fine with us. However, the actual cottage plus the site were not suitable for us as seniors in our 80's. The ground was uneven for walking, and the many steps down from the deck were too much for me with a walking cane. There was much that needed attention inside the cottage itself which showed some lack of upkeep. However, on the plus side, our young ones enjoyed boating and fishing. The beach by our cottage had a lot of weeds, etc. and not suitable for swimming. The owner, manager. was quite friendly and helpful.
