Settle into a four-acre riverside retreat with a main house and guest house, a private pier and two boat slips, seasonal saltwater pool, and year-round hot tub. Bring the whole crew — up to 13 guests.
Coffee by the river. A paddle from the private launch. An afternoon at the pool, then a fire beside the water.
Cattail Cove gives your group room to be together and room to unwind, with a second house when someone wants a little quiet — all on four private acres where the nearest neighbor is a shape through the trees, not a driveway away.
Bring your own boat — two private slips are yours for the stay. No boat? A public launch is about 10 minutes away. A provided kayak and crab traps are ready whenever you are.
The main house and guest house are both included — room for grandparents, teenagers, and everyone in between to spread out on four private acres.
The hot tub runs all year. The saltwater pool is usually open early May through early October. Evenings end at the bluestone fire pit — just bring the wood.
A regulation, lit 60′×30′ pickleball court and a half basketball court are being built on-site, arriving this fall.
