A prime neighborhood location between the ocean and sound provides plenty of options to fill your days; your only decision is which direction will be calling you first. Both your kids and furry dog friends will appreciate the fenced-in backyard for fun and games. You’ll love the shaded lower-level high-top tables and chairs to keep an eye on the action happening in the brand-new saltwater swimming pool and 6-person hot tub. A half-bath and outdoor shower are conveniently close by, and a washer/dryer is located on the ground level as well. Climb the stairs to the first level and discover a screened-in porch, a nostalgic harbinger of what you’ll find inside — a wood-beamed ceiling that inspires a camp-like ambiance. Make no mistake though, the completely updated kitchen with all new appliances, granite countertops, and soft-close cabinets is a contemporary delight for prepping meals. So is the large Smart TV, providing the ability to stream your favorite show in the comfort of a nicely furnished great room. The adults in your group may want to claim this space as their own as two master bedrooms — an ensuite king and ensuite queen — occupy this level as well. If the adults claim their space, so too should the kids, and the upper level provides the perfect hangout. Just up the spiral staircase is another TV, living area, and small kitchen with a snack-worthy refrigerator, sink, and microwave. There’s also another queen bedroom and a kid’s nook featuring a pyramid bunk that shares a full bath. Both levels offer newly furnished decks to enjoy the sunshine on the upper level or the shade below. Does Sandy Keeks bring back memories? Create new ones by booking it today.

Pool is great and under house tables, hot tub and hammock - awesome, especially in the rain. We had a ton of rain but there was plenty of room in the house. Could have a cutting board added and going outside for W/D not great but minor. Really loved our stay. Nicely furnished - relaxing. Great fence for dog too! ##### Sharon C. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tracey J. 1 Nov 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy Did not like having to go downstairs to use washer and dryer. Shower in master bedroom needs hand held sprayer. Master bedroom bed hurt both of our backs. ##### Tracey J.
