Explore the nearby Tennis Court Park, offering basketball and tennis courts within a 10-minute walk. For fresh oysters, visit nearby Taylor Shellfish Farms or Minterbrook Oyster Co. Guests must be 25 or older, or traveling with adults. No parties or loud activities are allowed, as island noise restrictions are strictly enforced. The home is on a septic system, so only toilet paper should be disposed of in toilets, and no food or grease should go down the drains. Beach steps and rock paths may be slippery when wet, so use caution. Do not harvest or eat shellfish from the island beach due to toxin risk.
