This unique offering is a newly renovated, Swiss country style home with a breathtaking panorama view of the water up both sides of the creek and a stunning view of Kingsbay Mansion in the distance. Just inside a marble floored entry foyer are bedrooms left and right. One hosts an en suite bathroom. Dockside has an open great room just off the first-floor deck that has a comfy living space and ample dining room area, as well as, a new kitchen with spacious counters, bar seating for three and state of the art appliances. The kitchen is outfitted with a full array of dinner and cookware with kitchen utensils and appliances galore. The newly added solarium is painted in English manor red, with ceramic floors, and granite wet bar. Five plush red and black recliners await guests to relax in front of an generous flat screen television. The solarium steps onto smart, exposed aggregate decking that surrounds a luscious swimming pool for those long hot summer days filled with sunshine and fresh air. Vacation living does not get any better!

Secluded getaway
This house is even more beautiful than the pictures suggest. It’s very much a secluded getaway, great for COVID social distancing which was just what we wanted. There isn’t a dock but the back yard is right on the water and while it was too chilly to swim we did have very successful fishing. David and Jerry were super attentive to questions and concerns and any other needs we had.

Just as advertised and more!
Our stay at Dockside was just what we needed. First and foremost, the hospitality was over the top!!! Amazing communication before and during the visit. Working with David on site was a joy and Jerry beforehand was very communicative always answering all my questions. Hosts were extremely accommodating and helpful with storm Isaias being in the middle of our stay. Very easy to socially distance as the house is on a very quiet part of the water. Renting boats For the week (kayaks, paddle boards, and powerboat) was great. Also nice bike riding in the neighborhood. The house had plenty of space for two families and spots for the kids to play. Kitchen had everything we needed and the bedrooms and bathrooms felt like a b&b with folded towels and nicely made beds. Only downside was we didn’t feel comfortable swimming off the backyard (although you can) with the little kids due to some jellyfish spotted and uneven ground. But we made due and found a sandy beach nearby by boat for a beach day! Overall a great vacation and a special thanks to David again for his generosity and hospitality! Hope to come back and try out another one of your properties soon!
