The Washburn-Weil trailhead is nearby, offering a beautiful system of hiking trails that connect to Pine Orchard and Guilford. Residents will enjoy the close-knit community, with morning walks by the harbor, views of the Thimble Islands, and meet-ups at locally-owned shops. The area is also home to the Willoughby Wallace Library, Stony Creek Museum, Stony Creek Boating Association, and several quaint dining and shopping options.
