Island hopping & fishing on Masonboro Sound

Winter fishing at its best! Pick your adventure in this 1-of-a-kind cottage on the Masonboro Island Estuarine Reserve. Get your SUP or kayak ‘on’ and in just a 300m paddle (5 min) you can be lounging on one of the dozens of secluded tiny island beaches surrounding the cottage. Make the ~20 min paddle to experience the unspoilt beauty of Masonboro Island’s pristine, 9 mile white sand beach. Or chill on the dock (shared with owners) and take in the jaw dropping views with a glass of wine.
