Nestled in a park like setting the The Dock House offers the best of both worlds. Quiet, comfort & privacy after a day at the beach or a night on the town. The back of the property features a screened porch (but bugs are rarely a concern) that opens to all the sounds and sights a salt water estuary can provide. Hawks, Heron, Egrets, Osprey, Pelicans, Pipers, Turkey Vultures and Woodpeckers are everyday visitors. Game such as Deer, Rabbits and Squirrels frequent the area. Visable from the dock are fish and crustaceans during the daily tidal flow. The side yard is large enough to acommadate a Bocce, Badmiton or a Croquet game. A park style barbecue with patio area is located down in the shade by the estuary perpendicular to the hammock trees. One of the worlds top 25 beaches (voted by National Geographic 2017 & Trip Advisor 2018) is located 2 miles away as the crow flies. Parking at the beach can be found for free at the main entrance area or back towards the shops.
Welcome! We hope you enjoy our home and this area as much as we do. Please reach out if questions arise.
Proximity to downtown Calabash (within biking distance) & on the edge of Calabash Salt Water River. We are in a remote corner of Calabash Acres. Sunset Beach is 5 miles. Starting 4/1/2025 the town of Sunset Beach will be instituting a paid beach parking program. Details at Sunset Beach website. There is a fishing pier at Sunset Beach, privately owned with a dollar fee to stroll read the islands history. A nine dollar per pole charge for fishing. The beach is a beauty at all times. Great sun worshiping, swimming, bicycling, walking, surf casting, or running. The sand is packed smooth and hard where the water touches it. Generally ten degrees cooler at the shore. Catch at least one sunrise and sunset at the beach. . Some of the best times to go temp. wise are late May to June or Sept. into mid Oct. But it's not unheard of to hit 75 degrees in January. Check water temp for swimming plans though. Calabash has been billed "The SeaFood Capital of the World" starting in the 1940's. The area usually draws a good crowd around diner time. Year round fresh shrimp is one of the notables for the area. Many great consignment stores in town and in surrounding area.
