It was designed to work well with multiple families - 2 or 3 families going together to share the experience and the expense. That is what beach homes were originally made for and that is what The Chautauqua is here to recreate. Memories where families & friends can come together, away from their daily grind, to enjoy each other & the sun & the surf.
How is the beach? The Chautauqua happens to have the BEST BEACH in the area. Wide. No Cars. Powder Sand. 100 ft from your door. See details under Activities.
The House revolves around the Great room - 24 foot long. The floors are Heart of Pine. They don’t even grow wood like that any more. The stairs and loft are Brazilian Cherry. The windows are cased in specially milled period trim. The Bead board wainscoted is original, carefully removed & refinished from the original walls where it had been covered with Drywall. Even the interior doors, all 8 foot, were patterned after the originals.
It has 3 comfortable Leather Couches - a MUSIC CENTER with PIANO & Guitar – a LARGE DINING table and Bar Stool counter. Powder Room. And Wonderful OCEAN VIEWS.

The 4th has a QUEEN Bed & a SINGLE rollout Trundle. It uses the Powder Room & showers in the Upstairs Loft.
The LOFT is the show place of it all. The view is unsurpassed from the COVERED LANAI recessed for sun and wind protection.The Kids will love the SLEEPING BERTHS - 3 SINGLES complete w/individual reading lights, TV/DVDs, and under bed Storage Drawers.

I have tried to design The Chautauqua to be the ULTIMATE beach experience. I hope you will consider it “your” home at the beach.
