Sailors’ Paradise - Stevens Cove Guest Quarters

Just steps from the wharf you'll find Stevens Cove Guest Quarters. The apartment is at ground level with a spacious deck overlooking the mooring field. The bay is dotted with boats in this very active sailing community of Chester - home to the largest keel-boat regatta in North America. Whether you are a sailor or just enjoy the water view this is the place to see boats large and small, modest and grand from May through October. The posted price includes 15% Harmonized Sales Tax. The apartment is of brand new construction and comfortably furnished with all you will need for an extended stay. There is a comfy queen bedroom, bright and open kitchen, dining and living area and a sleek bathroom. The kitchen is fully outfitted and there is a propane barbeque on the deck. The deck is huge so there is room for outdoor dining and lounging and plenty of space to pull up your kayak or paddleboard. Stevens Cove Guest Quarters is across the yard from a working marina and boat-building company. There will be business activity on the adjacent grounds daily from 7:30 to 4:30 on weekdays. South Shore Marine provides boat launching services, repairs, and houses the Marine Shop. The apartment, although within the grounds of SS Marine is quite private with gorgeous views. At 4:30 pm all work ceases and the evening quiet takes over. Kick back with a cocktail, fire up the barbeque or take a late day paddle on the mirror flat water along the shore. This place will appeal to anyone who loves boats and is curious about what a working boatyard is like. There are regular sightings of seals, porpoise and many varieties of coastal birds, especially in the quiet evenings. Guests will have access to the apartment and deck. Entry is through the waterside deck doors with a coded lock. As the surrounding area is a public business the grounds and wharf are also available to guests, however, it is advised to use caution and awareness when boats are being moved about on land. Children should not be left unattended on the grounds or wharf. The host will be available by text or phone at any time. Stevens Cove is just a 5-minute drive west of Chester, down a private paved road. There is nearby access to the trail system for cycling or walking and full access from the deck to the water for paddling or fishing. There is no public transportation in the area, however, there is a van service for airport pick-ups along with the usual Chester based taxi service. Guest Wifi network is open.
