For those desiring to participate in the Paddle Board Competition - register as a SUP competitor. The cost for this is $30.

All registrants will receive free warm beverages and food. Set 2012 off with a bit of daring and come out to take part in the cold water and warm food. Happy New Years!

This condo is decorated in reds and browns for a warm and rich feel. You will step in and appreciate the updates of flat screen TVs and granite counters in the kitchen. Speaking of the kitchen, it is fully equipped with dishes, silverware, glassware, and cookware along with kitchen appliances needed for your comfort.
