Why the Owner Chose Fenwick Island
We love the coastal shore - it's a great place for families and so relaxing.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhouse
Our home is not your customary place. It's very large, very well equipped, set up to not only look beautiful but it is very comfy as well. The location is ideal - the north end of O.C. - the beaches are wide - the people friendly and not as crowded.

After vacationing in the area we decided to buy our own place - and now we love going year round.
