Creative chef offers delicious, fresh entrees. Highly recommend staying for dessert! City Kitchen definitely requires an advance reservation. During the spring and fall, when the wind can be unpredictable, sometimes tables will open up outside at the last minute on an unexpectedly calm day. Try ringing them at 2:00 if you know the winds are changing and see if they can fit you in. You can always try the Tiki bar on the docks. Bartender James is always up for conversation, and he makes the best Painkiller in town! Limited menu on offer, too!

Wine game is strong here! Food is truly amazing, and the menu offers small plates that I often get as my meal. PLEASE leave room for dessert! A nice selection of hand-crafted cocktails here, too.

Best tuna tacos in town! Stop and Front Street Grill's host stand to get a table at Rhum Bar (you have to walk through FSG to get to it) or try your luck at getting seats at the bar. Bartenders are fun and make terrific cocktails. This is our favorite lunchtime spot. Tuna tacos and Palomas!

A fascinating historic site with 3 miles of trails to walk or run. The trails are sandy/rocky. Closed toed shoes or sturdy sandals are recommended. The first two thirds is pretty well shaded, and the last third is in the sun.

Beautiful beach about 20 minutes from the townhouse. Lots of hidden public parking. We've found searching the area in G**gle Maps super helpful in locating little (and often shaded!) hidden public parking areas.

Golf Carts

Before your trip, you may want to reserve a golf cart for use around the neighborhood and in town. It’s sometimes easier to get around that way. To reserve ahead, here are some options for you. The Airbnb guidebook doesn't allow me to add phone numbers in the standard format, so please note the area code is 252, and the rest of the numbers are below.
