Other things to note
REST, RELAX, RESTORE, and GET OUTSIDE!

Outdoor Enthusiasts, Wildlife lovers, and Sportsmen love the Downeast area. Fishing, Birding, Clamming, Sunbathing, Swimming and more! Bring your boat, kayak, or jet ski to scoot over (1.5 miles) to the National Seashore or "the banks" as they are locally called where you will get the rare opportunity to experience the outer banks as nature intended. Some great boating activities include:
-Exploring the Cedar Island National Wildlife Refuge
- Fish Ophelia Inlet for trophy Redfish ("Drum" around here)
-Surf fish the Cape Lookout National Seashore
-Shelling and beachcombing miles of untouched Beach

If you don't bring a boat don't worry, you can also catch a private ferry over to North Core banks from the Morris Marina Ferry 5 minutes away (Seasonal so check schedule). Another private ferry in Davis (15 miles) can access South Core Banks and Cape Lookout (seasonal).

Keep in mind the sound is very shallow and is best with a shallow draft boats. It is also important to have a depth finder, knowledge of channel markers and proper navigation in coastal waters. Water shoes are also a must as the sound has oysters, shells, and other sharp objects.

Please note there is an exterior camera facing the driveway and back door to the property.
