Sand Shark is set well off the street in Marstons Mills on a private lane just minutes to beaches, ponds, shopping, golf courses and walking trails. Bring your boat, there's plenty of parking! There is a second rental unit on the top floor, but rest assured, the units are very private, and each has their own entrances with separate fire-pit areas and picnic tables. Both have access to the large outdoor areas on the property.
Take a short walk to Lovell's Pond, where you can launch a small engine boat, kayak, swim and fish.
The first floor features a newer eat-in kitchen, an updated bathroom, a master bedroom with queen bed, and a large sectional in the living room with a smart TV. The walkout lower level has a full bath with shower, a full bed, a single bed, a bar-height table for two, loveseat, washer/dryer and a large smart TV. Perfect place for the kids to hang out after a fun day at the beach! We have board games, table-top ping pong, puzzles and books as well.
The kitchen is fully equipped with dishware, silverware, and pots and pans, along with basic spices. It also includes a Keurig coffee maker, toaster and teapot. You can eat indoors or enjoy a meal at the large picnic table outside by the fire pit. We also provide a grill for outdoor cooking.
