Long dinners in the courtyard, nights by the fire.
Start the morning with coffee on one of the East Cove's two private balconies, then head down to the courtyard.
The heart of Seaside Square is the courtyard: a long table for 20 under string lights and woven pendants, a large propane grill for burgers after the beach, and a fire table with lounge chairs for slow nights. The beach shed is stocked with chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, coolers and wagons, so you can walk to the sand with everything you need.

You will not need it.
