A nest of American Bald Eagles can be seen now and then, and some lucky visitors can actually catch sight of a Loggerhead Turtle coming ashore to lay hundreds of eggs in the soft sand. You will want to spend time exploring the rest of this unique and special island. If you’re looking for a relaxing beach vacation experience, this house will exceed your expectations. Expect this vacation home to book fast! Reserve the Summer Salt Cottage for your family’s vacation of a lifetime!
