One of kind Ocean Front Compound with private beach!


A main house and two cottages ocean-front on historic Hills Beach. Walk ten steps over your patio, down to your private stairs, and you'll be on your private beach. There is a huge ground-level patio for cookouts and family fun. There are two decks, one with a farmer’s table for big dinners and the other on the second floor for relaxing. The ocean views are breathtaking.

Outside: We renovated the patio in 2025 and it's really nice.... if I say so myself. More space to relax and unwind. It now has a fence along the sea wall providing safety for the little ones. Adirondack chairs dot the patio, along with two loungers and a patio table with chairs. Beach chairs are also provided, they are stored in the laundry room.

Main House
1st Floor:
The open-concept kitchen and living room includes a dining table that seats six. A Full kitchen with plenty of storage and preparation space with an island is a vacation cook’s dream. There are three bar stools along the island for a fun hang without getting in the cook’s way. The living room includes a sectional couch, great for a cozy movie night. The 60" TV with an Apple TV (Netflix, Hulu, Max, Disney+, etc available).
Off the living room, a large screened-in deck with a farm table that easily seats 8 and can fit up to 10. Watch the ocean or gaze at the stars, it’s a perfect setting for lobster dinners or something a bit fancier!

Main House
2nd Floor:
As you walk up the stairs there’s a deck great for reading and relaxing in the sun.
Bedroom #1
Queen size Bed and large closet
Bedroom #2
Full-Size Bed and Closet
Bedroom #3
Two Twin Beds and double closet
Main House Bathroom:
Massive shower, toilet and sink
The main house sleeps six total.

Star Cottage:
Renovated over the winter (2025) all pine Star cottage is very cool. Cathedral ceilings, tons of light and full-on ocean views. The cabin has a Queen-sized bed and bunk beds. A roll-away cot and extra mattress are available. Star also has a full bathroom with a shower. It sleeps a total of 4 on the beds but has an extra mattress too for one more if needed. Star is great for the kiddos or a family.

Malaga Cottage:
Malaga was also renovated in 2025 completely. Now with a bigger bathroom and seating area. Malaga has a kitchenette area with a small fridge, microwave and prep area. The first bedroom, in Malaga, has a Queen-sized bed and the second a full-sized bed. There is another roll away cot available in Malaga. The cottage has a bathroom with a shower. Malaga can sleep 4.

The “compound” has off street parking for 4 cars or potentially 5 with a little bit of tetris.

What I love about this really unique setup is that people can have their own space while still vacationing together. Whether it’s is the kids together in the Star cottage or parents with children could stay in Malaga cottage while the grandparents stay in the main house there are options.

During low tide you can walk to the surrounding islands and explore!

This is a lovely home for families to make magical memories. Please no parties.

Hidden gem!
Lauren was an absolutely gracious, pleasant and accommodating proprietor! We were a large family annual gathering, and have finally found our dream vacation home! The amenities, beachfront, home cleanliness and safety were second to none that we ever experienced. We, our children, grandchildren and friends unanimously agreed that “this is the one for our future annual fun spot!”

Great vacation
This property worked great for us with the main house and two bungalows. We were able to be together during the day but have separate sleeping arrangements. The house was clean, well equipped, and in a beautiful quiet neighborhood. It is literally right on the beach which is wonderful and the screeed in porch came in handy for one rainy day and staying out of the bugs at night. The homeowner was easy to work with.

A Unique Lovely Little Compound
Lovely views. Peaceful ambiance. Safe for the grandkids as it is situated in a little bay. No big crashing waves makes it easy for walking and playing along the shore. Access to the public beach is a big plus. The “neighbors “ are friendly. The neighborhood is well cared for and attractive. At low tide we all enjoyed walking over to the island. It was so much fun. Eating dinner all together on the screened porch and enjoying lively conversation into the night was great.

Beach Life!
Sweet location! Quiet and peaceful getaway. Full-size, stocked kitchen for large groups. Screened porch for dinners and breakfast overlooking the changing tides. Cabins [very small bathrooms] offer families separate sleeping. Private beach, friendly neighbors, plenty of parking. Caught a few stripers right in front!

Great family location
Four generations of our family stayed with us aging from 5 weeks to 82 years. The place gave us room to spread out. We had beautiful views and were close to many excursions. Plenty of accommodations. Everyone loved the place and we made memories we will cherish forever.

Great stay!
Amazing setting with plenty of sleeping space. The two cabins make it easy to spread out and give folks privacy while staying with a relatively large group. The kitchen was well equipped, making it easy to cook meals in. We hope to stay again!

Great accommodations for a family gathering. Enjoyed the beautiful scenic ocean views from the decks overlooking the bay, walks on the beach areas and sand lagoons at low tide and strolls through the Hills Beach neighborhood. A very relaxing stay.
