Beach
Waterman’s Landing is literally a 5-minute walk from the house. Turn right out of the driveway, right past the Old Post Office and you will see Waterman’s Landing. A beautiful rocky beach with a lovely boardwalk over a wetlands restoration area, the beach is nice in summer or winter. Waterman’s Landing is a small coffee shop with a nice place for a break, and during the summer, they rent paddleboards, kayaks, and other watercraft.

Just 2.5 miles to the east, is very quiet, very nice Moon Dune Beach. It’s a great spot to enjoy the sand and play in the shallow, warmer water of the lake.

Another mile down the road is super popular King’s Beach. A larger (but still small) parking area and a large beach attracts a lot of visitors. There’s a volleyball net and picnic tables that fill up quickly.
