Sea Star Cottage is perfect for honeymooners or a large family. Would definitely recommend it for a relaxing and refreshing vacation!
What a beautiful week. Hot and sunny! We had a great time here at Francis Louis House. It was instantly relaxing. What a beach! Timing is everything. Here comes hurricane Earl. We'd love to ride it out here but we have to leave. We will definitely return to the south shore.
This relaxing beachfront home is a seaside sanctuary immersed in nature. Modern framed views overlooking the treetops, sand dunes, and pristine white beach. Beach Heaven is a perfect getaway for anyone looking to recharge. We were spoiled with wood fired saunas stoked by our hosts. We would highly recommend this stylish home to anyone looking for an ocean adventure retreat.
Great accommodations
We stayed at this wonderful place for a week and made beautiful memories! We found this Castaway Ocean Lodge surfing the web and the service we received from Sandy Lane Vacations was great. It was a memorable moment when we drove up the lane and saw the cottage for the first time with the ocean as it's background…it truly was a jaw dropping moment for us all. What a treat…this cottage has all the conveniences of a home away from home and then some. We really enjoyed the hot tub and fireplace at the end of the day, it was great to be able to relax after long hikes. The location is perfect for nature lovers and the peaceful surroundings soothes the nerves, thus it was with much regret we had to pack up and head back home. Really enjoyed our stay and definitely worthy of a return trip in the near future.

Helen and the owners were very accommodating to our needs leading up to the stay and during as well. The location is amazing, and we loved having a spotting scope and binoculars to watch wildlife. The house is a good size and could have easily accommodated more than our family of four, beds are comfortable and the living room comes with a nicely tuned piano, which we loved playing."Jared, 2022 "Black Point Cottage was a wonderful place to stay. We thought that it was a very comfortable home that was rustic but full of character and tasteful touches. The land is really amazing. That such a large and untouched tract by the ocean even exists and can be rented is a marvel. It was beautiful in every direction with so much wildlife, and beautiful smells and sounds." J.
