Frequently asked questions
About the host
Your host
My husband and I are both former merchant mariners. We raised our family in this house and when we moved down the street after the kids were grown we elected to keep the house and now enjoy sharing it with others visiting the area.
Why they chose this property
We believe Willoughby Spit is a hidden gem. The miles long beach feels like a private beach for most of the year. The wave action is mostly docile and great for kids.
What makes this property unique
We think our property excels due to our attention to detail and all the little extras we include - complementary coffee, wine, snacks and toiletries (in case you forget to pack something). We also include a supply of beach chairs and boogie boards. Although we are not beach front we are very close to the beach. (around 225 steps from the front door). Our home is also walking distance to the Ocean View Fishing Pier and Restaurant.
