About this property
Lakefront Beach Home@Cinnamon Shore North w/ Sunset Views+Amenity Access!
Welcome to Tip'sea Saltbox, a beach property that will take your breath away the minute you walk through the door. This stunning, 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home nestles next to Lake Gavin, located close to the beach and the community’s resort-style pools. Enjoy great lake views from multiple balconies!
AMENITIES: Resort-style amenities include three lavish pools, two scenic lakes, a fishing dock, fire pits, fitness center, private dune crossovers, lawn games, a pirate ship playscape, and more! Enjoy on-site restaurants such as a Mediterranean bistro and a pizzeria, while the Town Center hosts events, activities, and live music in peak season and on holiday weekends.
MAIN LIVING SPACE: The first floor features customized, reclaimed wood on accent walls in the living room and dining room, along with a bright, open floor plan that has an unmistakable coastal feel. Serve meals on the kitchen islands, with bar-height seating, or at the rustic dining table.
Guests will love the second-floor game room and living area, a bright gathering spot where kids can play board games at the card table or watch movies on the flat-screen TV while relaxing on the twin-size day bed. The game room also features a wet bar with wine cooler and counterspace to set up morning coffee service. Step on to the balcony to look over Lake Gavin.
SLEEPING QUARTERS: On the first floor, a large, queen bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. With its calming tones and pops of color, this first-floor retreat makes for a great guest getaway.
The second floor boasts a serene, king master suite filled with cool blues. It offers private access to a sitting area on the front balcony, along with a double vanity sink and large walk-in shower in the spacious bathroom. Just around the corner, a fun bunk room houses two bunk beds, custom-built out of barn wood. One is a twin-over-twin bunk, and the other is a full-over-full bunk—sleeping a total of six. Sharing a bathroom with the bunk room, the second queen bedroom is decorated in lovely, neutral tones and coordinating prints on upholstery and rugs. Each of these upstairs bedrooms has direct access to a large, wrap-around, front balcony.
GREAT FEATURES: An internal stairway leads to the crowning, third-floor uncovered balcony with commanding lake views. All of the decks, porches and balconies have seating groups, from tables with chairs to Adirondack-style seating.
Whether you’re interested in sunrise yoga, morning coffee with a good book or happy hour cocktails at sunset, Tip'sea Saltbox, with its many spacious outdoor decks, is for you!

We had a wonderful stay at Big View II. It was a beautiful, roomy house. We found it well stocked and clean. It would have been nice if the ice maker worked. The feather stuffed couch and chairs where constantly molting, too many feathers! Other than that, it was a great place for our big family get away.

Overall outside of the house we had a good time.

Reviewer Comments:
It started when we checked in and they told us of the broken blinds prior to us seeing the house. Then once walking into the house through the broken front door knob and broken tiles, shattered dresser, scuffs on walls and floor, ripped comforter, the list goes on... I felt I had to take countless pictures so we wouldnt be charged for all the damaging things. My 2 year old walked through the home once and I changed her diaper only to see her feet were black from the dirt on the floor. Very disappointing

Had reservations at another resort. Elevators not working, boardwalk to beach was closed and communication with management difficult. Checked with Cinnamon Shore and they had availability for Big View ll and let us check in first thing next morning! House was great for our family size; attractive, well kept and convenient location. We did have one problem; the stove and oven did not work and they were unable to get it fixed while we were staying there. A toaster oven saved the day!

Reviewer Comments:
The house was perfect for our family of 6 adults, 2 kids a 1 yr old and 9 mo old. The kitchen was well stocked. All was great except check in process. Since no one was renting 3 days prior I requested early check in so we could unload with 2 grandsons and husband went to airport for additional family. I was told yes we could get in early once cleared. We arrived at 2:30 they said it would be ready in 30 min, still was not ready until 3:20 then they were going to charge extra $50. (for 40 min) when this was never mentioned to me the 3 or 4 times I spoke with them. so we waited on the porch another 45 min until 4, while my husband went to the airport to pick up additional family. If they had told me when I called week prior absolutely no early check in, and or a early fee, I would have had different expectations.

We enjoyed the house and the very stylish and updated decor. The views from the back decks were amazing and the beach access was great. Only minor negatives were extremely weak WiFi (my husband needed to do some work and it was hard) the lack of a Kuerig (we went and bought one in town), and the fact that the master closet is locked, so there is nowhere to put hanging clothes in that room. But, the house was super new and super clean, and aside from the minor inconveniences listed above, everything else was great.,

Reviewer Comments:
There is no closet for the master bedroom, so the people that pay for the house have to leave out their suitcases, and have clothes everywhere. The bedrooms do not all have TVs and the room that did have a TV did not work and was not fixed even when reported on Sunday, and leaving on Friday. The bedrooms were hot because the AC upstairs blew into the center of the of the house where a useless game room was located and the stairway to the 3rd story balcony. We also had 6 roaches appear which is always gross. No vent fan in the master bath either, so after a shower, it is super humid in the bathroom. Just was a big disappointment given the price and past houses we have rented which were so amazing.
