A south-facing wall of windows and French doors frames views of passing wildlife and boat traffic, with the sound of waves close at hand. Enjoy the sunny deck with seating, a barbecue, and a hammock. A propane fireplace enhances a winter stay. The primary suite features a luxurious double shower and towel warmers. At 1,060 square feet with one bedroom and bath, it's everything you need for a romantic getaway. Vacation rental permit allows for six guests--queen sleeper in the living room and possible to finish basement for more guest space.
