vacation rental description
Hopkins House fronts the Assateague Channel toward a much-photographed view of the lighthouse. The two upstairs bedrooms offer twin beds and light, breeze, and more views. The cozy living room (which seats eight) opens onto an enclosed front porch with built-in daybeds for viewing sunrise, sunset, and wildlife.... and napping. The eat-in kitchen adjoins the rear deck for afternoon sun (or shade under the umbrella). Large yard with flowers & herbs. Dock for crabbing, kayaking, small boat mooring....meditation and dreaming.
Note: For larger groups, consider renting #65506, "Cute 1950s Cottage" --which is right next door-- along with this property. Have your own family compound!
