In a wonderful location nestled at the end of 24th Ave., this quiet cottage will instantly be your home away from home. Have an electric car? Charge while you vacation with the conveniently provided EV - Electric Car Charger port!


Enjoy the cool morning shade from the new back deck. Sip your coffee slowly, it will take some time to take in the views of the bay and the birds, with the marsh and sound waters beyond.


When the surf calls, its just a short walk up 24th Ave and over to the next side street is the public beach access.


After spending time on the beach, relax on the front deck, with afternoon shade and more great long range views of nature and sounds waters.


Sunset Bay has a traditional feel with modern upgrades including a renovated kitchen with granite countertops, an open main room for enjoying time together and 3 bedrooms with comfortable beds for your relaxation at the end of a full beach day.


Enjoy cookouts with the gas grill, another way to take in the surrounding views of the sound and marshlands.


After dinner, walk out the path to the edge of water to watch the birds dive for fish, or throw a line in yourself. And of course, take a moment to enjoy the pretty sunset.

8/22/20 A Poem shared by N & T

A cottage home called Sunset Bay, Found on the web, a place to stay.

Reviews seemed great, so we took a chance, And all week long, have done a high-five dance.

Early morning coffee, warm breeze at the sound, Watched birds fish for breakfast, others fly around.

A cute little bunny hopped here and there, Only in the tall grass to disappear.

Topsail Steamer Bucket ~ took to heat & eat,
Sat at your delightful table to feast on the seats.

Daily walks on the beach, swims in the waves, The most perfect place to spend our days.

Early evening front deck cold beers, Soon moved to back deck to view sunsets beyond compare.

We were tired and weary when we arrived from our trip,
But cares and stresses washed away with each outside shower dip.

We love the warm cozy cottage feel, The artwork and adequate kitchen for our meals.

The inside bath was surely nice, But our favorite shower - outside is our advice!

One week here ~ sigh...we're grateful indeed, Thinking two weeks (don't want it to end) is what we need.

If we can come back, we will for sure.

Next time, with fishing poles and lure.
