More specifically for this property - There is a small section of usable sandy-pebbly beach at this property. You can walk or drive a 1/2 mile to Owls Head State Park Lighthouse where there are some small beaches as well. It is a short 5 minute drive to three great area beaches. The closest is Crescent Beach, but also Birch Point Beach State Park and Crocketts Beach are other public beaches within 5 minutes of the property. All of these beaches are great for kids and that is why we have classified it as being on or in this case - "near" sandy beaches.
