Nature Lovers!:
Location is perfect for nature lovers! The house sits between the Beach and one of America's largest wildlife refuges. The Prime Hook National Wildlife refuge is over 10,000 acres and is in a key position in the Atlantic flyway hosting hundreds of thousands of migratory birds each year including several rare species and endangered species. Common rare species that birdwatchers come to Slaughter Beach to see are the Red Knot, Ruddy Turnstone, Semipalmated Sandpiper, Sanderling and Dunlin.
Slaughter Beach is also host to the largest Horseshoe migration in the U.S. hosting several hundred thousand of the ancient species for about one week each year in mid-May and is a designated Horseshoe crab conservation zone. In fact the horseshoe crab eggs are partially responsible for the mass bird migration as the birds come to feed on the Horseshoe crab eggs

Pets and Smoking:
We have recently renovated our home and taken many steps to reduce or eliminate allergens including removing carpets, cleaning the HVAC system and installing hepa-filtration filters. We have done this both to allow our enjoyment of this home and to allow others with moderate to severe allergies to do so. As a result, we can not allow any pets inside the home. We also can not allow smoking of any kind within our home.
Any evidence of either will automatically result in forfeit of the entire deposit. The cost of eliminating the result of smoking or pets (i.e. HVAC cleaning, carpet removal, steam cleaning) will also be the responsibility of the renter.
