You will also discover the large fire pit for your enjoyment and a groomed pathway down to the ocean front. Children should be supervised at all times in these areas. You'll love picking blueberries and raspberries in the grassy hill next to the house, just a quick hop across the stream! Lots of trails to explore, as well!
