About this property

This is a great family house done in the traditional upside down style used to take advantage of beach views. The north deck has an octagonal picnic table to seat the whole family as well as a high top table w/chairs and stools to better see the ocean and assist the cook! It is a great place to check out the morning waves while sipping that first cup of coffee, or for enjoying a home grilled dinner (watch out for those seagulls though, they are fast!) The east deck is covered and a nice place to escape the midday sun or a rain shower. It's breezy and cozy all at once!. Both decks are great places to watch the world go past by air, land or sea.
The dining room has a huge historic table that seats all guests at once. There is also bar seating for 3 and a beverage fridge to free up space in the main refrigerator for food stuffs. The living room has a unique built in bar area complete w/keg fridge and Margaritaville Blender. It's great for adults but our kids love the bar area as a place to snack and play games. The top floor also has a full bathroom and utility closet. There is plenty of cabinet space in the kitchen for all your goodies and we supply two drip coffee makers so there is no waiting in the morning for that crucial next cup!

There is a newly renovated master bath. The other downstairs bathroom is separated into two rooms, one w/two distinct sink areas and the other comprising the toilet and tub/ shower. This configuration is especially useful during rush hour! To me the best shower is found outside, where all the sand and salt can be washed off under the sun or stars...depending on how late you are. There is a downstairs deck as well, where beach toys and chairs can be found, and where you can rest while waiting for the outdoor shower. The side yard has a good, old fashioned clothes line for sandy towels and wet suits. Almost all of the beds are new foam mattress beds, making for a great night's sleep! The driveway has parking for four, or use the street and let the kids use the drive way for games and biking.
The house is perfect for two families or for multi generational get togethers. The beach is 4 houses away and a block behind us, off of Second Ave, is a great kid's park.

Perfect location for a friends gathering in Stone Harbor

I booked Bayberry for a group of men to visit Stone Harbor to play golf. The owner was super responsive and allowed us to check in as early as 9AM. We found the house to be very clean and well equipped. There was plenty of local information prepared for us along with a nice welcome bottle of wine! In particular, we enjoyed the bar, the covered deck and the sound system! The kitchen had everything we needed to put on a high end dinner and really appreciated the commercial stove and wide range of pots/pans. The Beds were comfortable and although we had to bring our own linens and towels, we found the overall experience to be excellent. A few items were left behind on checkout and again the Owner was supper helpful in getting the items back. Well done! Highly recommend for a larger group/family that wants to spend some time in Stone Harbor.

Splendor at the Beach

Our two families of 10 people had a wonderful stay at this beach haven home that offered two great outdoor patios with a spacious dining and living area inside. We were able to host a barbecue for my father’s 80th birthday and everyone commented on how great the home was. Bedrooms were conveniently arranged on the first floor. Beautiful beach was just one block away. Highly recommend.

Perfect location, charming house

We rented this house as lodgings for the groomsmen and associated guests at my wedding and as a staging area for me to get ready the night before. It had spacious areas for us to meet and handle the business of preparing for the wedding. The location (about 2 minutes' drive/15 minutes' walk from the venue, near the commercial area centered on 96th St) was also great for us.

About the host

Hosted by Felicia Angus

My brother and I are from a large family and both my husband and sister-in-law come from north of the border. We collaborate well..working and playing together here. Our kids have been lucky to grow up together in this house during their summers and in the off season. In fact, our favorite times have been spending early fall, Thanksgiving, and New Years here. The town spruces up for the holidays, and it's so nice and quiet too.

Why they chose this property

My parents had a place in Stone Harbor since before I was born. Then many members of the extended family began settling here too. When my husband and I got married and moved to London, we would come to Stone Harbor for our family holidays. In fact we were married in Stone Harbor, and had our reception in Cape May. So you can see the area has special meaning for us. One New Year's Holiday a friend and sister-in-law spotted this property and the rest was history. We bought the house w/one of my brothers, making the trans-Atlantic ownership much easier. Along the way a few of my other brothers have purchased properties on the island and Stone Harbor has been our family reunion 'beach week' spot for 30+ years now. The 20 cousins all have such a good time together that they are now petitioning for 'beach weeks!'

What makes this property unique

What makes this house great is that it is so close to the beach and an easy walk to town. Because of its proximity to the water we often find our house used as the base camp on beach days. What I love is when it's not too hot to keep the windows open you can go to bed to the sounds of the ocean at night and wake up to the sounds of the gulls in the morning. The house is on a bigger lot too, and that gives it a sense of privacy...as do the big old trees out front. It is not a new house, but an older house modernized w/a bit of funk...the old wood charm mixed in w/the new world functional that just makes it a great house to in which to vacation.
