About this property
Waterfront with Private Pier and Tranquil Water views!
Dive into this charming waterfront cottage with eclectic decor to relax, renew, and rediscover. Relax on the deck or dock staring at the mesmerizing water during the day or gazing at the stars at night. Renew with yoga or meditation in the sunroom, or a bubble bath in the bathtub. Rediscover nature while fishing/crabbing or watching a variety of birds from waterfowl to soaring eagles. With a variety of spaces to choose from, lose yourself reading or writing a good book or find yourself trying something completely new. Feed your soul with good nutrition by whipping up your own culinary creations in the fully equipped kitchen or on the gas grill or try someone else's creations with an outing to a local restaurant. Sleep soundly on queen size beds with fresh linens and pillow toppers in bedrooms with room darkening blinds and remote-controlled ceiling fans. If surfing is more your speed, you can surf the internet or stream your movies/shows on the TV or your devices with high-speed internet via Wi-Fi. For those with a more adventurous spirit, a pier with covered boat slip offers opportunities for boaters, kayakers, jetskiers, sunbathers, and swimmers alike. A 4 ft mlw (mean low water) depth makes docking your watercraft simple.

About the host
Hosted by Lisa & Portia
We're just two gals continuing a dream started by our mom. She created a beautiful and comfortable place where family and friends love to gather, explore, and rest. While we can never bring the special touch our mom had, we are trying to honor her vision and add our touches along the way. We hope to share the magic of Ferry Creek Retreat with you.

Why they chose this property
Our parents chose the neighborhood when we were kids, and it's always been a quiet, restful enclave, with plenty of fun to be had on the water. The neighborhood features a beach and a boat ramp for our use and for our guests. We also have great neighbors who are very friendly and active in the community. If you walk the neighborhood, you will likely meet them riding their golf carts or walking their dogs.
What makes this property unique
We have the best sunset and water views. The colors of the sunsets can be simply stunning, and the water brings its own surprises. Between the fish, wildlife, and changes in sunlight on the water, it always brings a glorious new view worthy of a photo. While we are part of a neighborhood, our location makes it feel very private so you can take it all in undisturbed. An eyeful of natural beauty, a deep breath, a slow exhale, and all the stress of everyday life just melts away.
