How is the Beach? Best in Town:
Since Beaches vary so widely, I will try to point out the main differences you should ask about. First is the Powder Sand. The Chautauqua’s sand is like powder-not coarse ground up shells like some. Great for drip castles! Second, at The Chautauqua the ocean is right At Your Door Step. There is no long raised boardwalk with a 5 minute walk across the dunes to navigate with the cooler & chairs before you ever get to the water. The ocean is right there. Third, there are No Cars. This is a major distinction. Imagine trying to play paddle ball with cars continually passing by & having to be on constant baby alert. Not while you are on vacation! Next, the beach is wide, level & private - Some beaches are very narrow & steep. Its almost impossible to ride the waves whereas the locals consider The Chautauqua the Best Surfing around. There 's a Surf shop with lessons & rentals at the end of our block but you can have loads of fun with the toys provide fee. No High Rise condos either!
How Is The House? The Chatauqua Is A Classic:
It starts with the Great room - 24 foot long – which acts as the main focal point from which the 4 Bedrooms flow.... plus a Huge Loft that houses the Sleeping Births, Pool Table & Wet Bar.... and 2 Ocean View Porches. I fell in love the minute I saw it & have spent over a year restoring it to is former glory. Everything was replaced in 2005 w/Top Of The Line materials. I designed it to be the Ultimate beach experience - A place where friends & family could come together & enjoy each other- Recharge their batteries. That is why there are 2 Masters & possibly 3 w/loads of sleeping options like the Sleeping loft or the Optional First Floor which adds 4 more beds. I like the idea of extended families & friends coming together. I think it is important. I want you to continue coming back year after year - to consider it 'your 2nd home'. I would like The Chautauqua to become an integral part of your Family Memories for years to come. Please come see us.
