The exterior of Blue Arches provides many great features including a wrap-around deck which connects to a screened-in porch as well as a covered section of porch where you can spend an afternoon reading and admiring the movement of the tides, blue herons and other birds that live in this pretty cove - sometimes we even have a seal come for a visit!

ENJOY YOUR MUSIC or radio throughout the house. The house is wired for sound so that you can easily play music throughout the house from a smart phone, iPad, computer or iPod. Just plug in and play - you can play sound in certain rooms and not in others according to your choice.
The yard is protected by woods that are perfect for a walk or a wander. The lawn is big and open providing the perfect place for yard games (bocce ball, badmitten, horseshoes, volleyball - equipment supplied) or simply sitting and basking in the quiet beauty of this idyllic setting while watching the hummingbirds dance around the flower beds. An enchanting variety of perennial and annual flowers all around the grounds provide lovely scents and bouquets for you to enjoy.
Blue Arches has the perfect spot to launch your kayaks, and for the more adventurous, afternoon swims are a refreshing treat. There are great hikes on the island!
