About this property
Sandbridge Family Cottage - Beach, Pool, AND Bay!
Crabs, Inc. is a comfortable cottage on a desirable corner lot with 5 bedrooms (3 queens, 1 twins, and a first floor “suite” with king bed and a loveseat). Two full baths, a half bath, and an outdoor shower. Each bedroom has its own SmartTV if you want to retreat to your room for some down time. Main room TV and first floor TV are also equipped with cable service.
Have the best of all worlds with our exceptional location. Enjoy our private dock on the canal, private salt water pool, and being just steps away from the beach (a 3 minute walk to a paved beach access). Spacious front and back decks, including a screened in porch, give you many outdoor options. Ping pong table is available in the garage and the house is stocked with a wide variety of games for both kids and adults. Rainy day keeping you from the beach? Enjoy working on one of our puzzles together at the dining room table!
The cottage can accommodate 10 guests.
Your rental includes bed linens, bath towels, and pool towels - at no additional charge! We also get you started with basics like a roll of paper towels, toilet paper, and dish soap.
We understand all the gear that goes along with bringing a baby or toddler to the beach! Thankfully, the cottage has a pack 'n play (you bring your own sheet), chair-top booster seat, and a baby gate for the stairs so you don't have to pack your own! We also have baby gates permanently installed at the top of both sets of deck stairs (front and back) and have the bottom sliding door that leads to the pool equipped with a safety alarm to help you make sure your child can’t get to the pool unattended.
Additionally, the cottage comes with 6 beach chairs available for you to use. We are happy to suggest rental companies for additional equipment you may like to have such as umbrellas, kayaks, SUPS, beach toy wagons, etc.
**Pool is open early May-early October. Please inquire about if the pool will be open during your stay if you are unsure.
This house is well-loved and maintained by the owners--not handled by a rental management company! We are proud of our strong communication and great care of our home and hope to host families that will also treat our home with respect. ***THIS IS NOT A HOME THAT SHOULD BE RENTED TO HOST PARTIES OR EVENTS***
SECURITY: For your safety, please note that Ring security cameras are located at the entrance and rear exterior of the property. These devices are strictly for monitoring security and will not invade guests’ privacy.
Please read our glowing reviews for first hand accounts of wonderful experiences working with us and staying at our family cottage.
Updates include:
Completely updated/redone first floor suite including half bath, flooring, walls, and King Bed with Tempurpedic Mattress (2023), all new SmartTVs in every bedroom (2024), brand new patio area around the pool, new/larger screened in porch, and a new roof (2022)! Other recent updates include brand new appliances (2021), kitchen lighting (2021), brand new windows (2021), new floors throughout (2020).

About the host
Hosted by Carter Warren
After over 40 years of vacationing in Sandbridge, our family made a dream come true and purchased our own Sandbridge cottage. We are excited to share the magic of Sandbridge with other families so that they can make memories that last a lifetime just like our family has! We hope to have groups join us that will relax, unwind, and treat our home with the love and respect they would treat their own.
Why they chose this property
Crabs, Inc. has such a unique and special location in Sandbridge. It is located just steps to a nearby beach access, but is right on the bay canal. Enjoy swimming in the pool during the summer months as well as fishing off our private dock. Our corner lot has wonderful outdoor space for kids to run around or families to play a game outside. A great front deck as well as a back deck/screened porch provide awesome spaces for lounging as well!
What makes this property unique
This house has an ideal location on "Back Bay" but is also extremely close to the beach access (only 500 steps!). Experience the best of all worlds with beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, a private pool and dock, and a large corner lot.
