As the tide changes throughout the day so do the views. Something is always putting on a show, whether it's the sunrise, eagles and ospreys catching fish in their talons, deer walking or running by, fishermen catching crabs or fish, or the dolphins!! It's truly amazing to watch from the 4 rocking chairs on the spacious front porch and balconies (4 more rocking chairs) while you sip your favorite drink, relax, read, or enjoy your family and friends.brbrThis house is on the 18th fairway of Ocean Point Golf Course. brbrThe beach is close by and there is a private outside shower attached to the back of the house to wash the sand off when you return.brbrSwimming pools?
