Lounge Away your Stress on our White Sand Beach.
The home includes beach rights on private Neptune Park Beach which
is a lovely white sand beach on Long Island Sound. From that beach
you can look out on the open water and see sailboats, ferries,
commercial shipping, fishing boats, an occasional submarine or tall
ship, 2 lighthouses, and Long Island in the distance. You can also
launch a canoe or kayak there. The beach has three distinct
sections separated by rocks. One has a diving and sunning platform,
another is a small cove, and the third is an open expanse of white
sand. Sitting on that part of the beach, you can almost feel like
you are in the Caribbean!

September is the best time at the beach, crowds are gone and the
water is still warm. In the fall, winter and spring, take beach
walks on the board walk or in the nature area. Or, enjoy
Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Years away from the city noise.

The house comes with linens, dishes, pots and pans and utensiles. There is cable TV, high speed internet access and a phone.  The backyard is surrounded with a 4ft fence.
