Bayfront | BBQ | Kayaks | Elevator | 5 Mins Beach

Welcome to The Sunny Catch – your bayfront retreat with 4 BALCONIES AND STUNNING VIEWS. Just STEPS TO THE BEACH AND FERRY, you can FISH RIGHT FROM THE DOCK or paddle the provided KAYAKS. Inside, enjoy a GAME-PACKED FLOOR, cozy living spaces, and SLEEPING FOR 13. Whether you`re grilling, relaxing, or soaking in sunsets, this home delivers fun, comfort, and unforgettable memories.

This spacious bayfront home is thoughtfully laid out across 3 levels, offering a balance of comfort, functionality, and coastal charm. Whether you`re traveling with kids, extended family, or a group of friends, the layout provides both shared gathering spaces and quiet corners to unwind. From playful amenities on the ground floor to the open-concept living area upstairs, the home is designed to meet the needs of larger groups without feeling crowded.

You’ll find plenty of room to spread out, cook meals together, relax with a game night, or sip coffee while taking in the view. Each level has been set up to make your stay smooth and enjoyable—from practical additions like a crib and high chair to fun touches like kayaks and a dartboard. And with direct access to the water, you’ll have the chance to enjoy outdoor activities like fishing and paddling right from the property, no need to pack up or drive anywhere. This is a space that invites you to settle in and make the most of your time by the bay.

The host was amazing! Sophia was there every time I needed anything. Between the phone calls and messages she was answering any questions I had immediately. The view of the canal was beautiful, especially at night. The availability to be able to walk out on the wall to fish was awesome.
