Try to imagine waking up to a gorgeous water view as the sun sparkles off the bay and beach. You stretch; grab your kayak, and start your day with an early morning paddle enriched by birdsong. Meanwhile, your fellow travelers are making breakfast in the gourmet kitchen or stretched out on the daybed in the sunroom, finishing that amazing book! Ahh vacation! Does it get any better than this?
Cloud Break is the perfect couples or family beach getaway. Let's start with the wonderful water views from the master bedroom, the sunroom, the kitchen and the living room. Then, there's the fabulous private neighborhood beach - soft sand access is right across the street, a quiet dead-end road. The beach is on the bay side of Plum Island - so more tame waters for paddlers: kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards. After you've enjoyed a day of swimming and sunning - stop by the outdoor shower. An outdoor shower is one of those special joys of summer!
Cloud Break offers amenities galore! The outdoor space is amazing! Gather in the comfy outdoor living room furnishings - couches and chairs beckon. Interested in a little quiet time - then swing gently in 1 of the 2 hanging chairs. Dinner time? Enjoy cooking on the gas grill and dining at the spacious table - and there's that view again!
Cloud Break indoors is even more delightful than the outdoors! The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream - all the great amenities: 5-burner gas stove, dishwasher, and French-door fridge with special cooling tray space. The kitchen is fully furnished with all the dishes, glassware and cooking accouterments. The breakfast bar provides extra prep space where the audience can witness the chef's creative genius.
Then, enjoy appetizers and happy hour in the amazingly cozy and calming living room! The vibe and style oozes peace and serenity. Or, watch a great movie on the big-screen (55-inch) smart TV.
Dinner's ready! Then, gather around the expansive dining table with that amazing water view! Plenty of space for the guests and the wonderful meal. Of course, you could eat outdoors - another spacious dining table awaits on the deck as well.
The sun streams into the sunroom, through the surrounding huge windows! Want some quiet time? The daybed beckons for that afternoon nap or reading with your eyes closed. Need to get a little work done? The desk and chair offer a convenient, yet dedicated workspace.
Ready for bed? Then ascend the stairs to the sleeping level.

Walking on a beach across a National Wildlife Refuge, hearing the waves crashing on long, sandy beaches, watching birds and deer nearby…
A walk is a nice introduction to the extraordinary diversity of the Plum Island scenery. Take a walk both on the beach and on the main Refuge road, which offers wonderful views on the Plum Island River marshes and the Broad Sound.
