It's the perfect location for hours of evening chats and delicious meals with beautiful bay views.
The king bedroom enjoys a smart TV and a convenient sink in the bedroom. The twin bedroom is perfect for the littles or young at heart.

A beach box with an umbrella, two beach chairs, 3 boogie boards, and sand toys are on the back deck. Life vests of all sizes are provided for water activities. Use kayaks and paddle boards at your own risk, please. Do not leave paddle boards or the kayak on the shore...tides will carry them away! Bocce ball and horseshoes are provided for fun lawn games.

A boat ramp is less than a mile from the Happy Shack, and there is plenty of room on the property for a boat and trailer with additional cars. Some guests have enjoyed anchoring their boat in the bay behind the house and wade or shuttle to the house (we have a boat buoy; we do not have a dock). The beach tiki is shared with four properties, and the wood flooring is messy from a hurricane, but it provides shade with bench seating. Happy Shack is not recommended for toddlers and children 5 & under, as there is a lot for little hands to get into! Additional videos and photos can be seen on our Facebook page @HappyShackBeach
We have removed decorative bedding & pillows and use commercial-grade disinfectant between guests.
