General note: Many of our rental properties do not have cable packages, but they are equipped with HDMI ports for plug-in streaming devices (such as Amazon FireSticks or Roku sticks).

COMMUNITY & AMENITIES
Two words come to mind when describing Bethany Bay: naturally beautiful. Situated on 420 acres of unspoiled land nestled between towering trees and gently lapping inland waterways. Bethany Bay is the perfect setting for your dream vacation.
The lush natural beauty of the inland waterway location sets a dramatic counterpoint to manicured lawns and a beautifully-maintained 9 hole Par 3 golf course, accented by the free-form pool, pool-side spa, tennis court, walking trails, and kiddie pool.
While your Bethany Bay vacation home serves as your quiet nest at the beach and bay, the 200 acres of protected wetlands that surround Bethany Bay Resort Community serve as a sanctuary for the birds, fish, and other wildlife that populate this area. Bethany Bay's prime waterfront location offers spectacular views no matter the time of day. The sun rises over the ocean and bay each morning, signaling the new day to each heron, gull, fish, and human that inhabits this lush natural area, and each evening the western bay reflects the colors of the sunset.
Bethany Bay's ponds and the surrounding coastal waterways are a vital homeland and way station for numerous species of waterfowl, including ducks, geese, and several varieties of herons and egrets. Whether it's a family of ducks swimming past your kitchen window or a majestic Great Blue Heron flying past your front door, opportunities abound for nature-watching or simply sitting back to enjoy the peaceful surroundings at Bethany Bay.
These areas not only provide an excellent opportunity for the nature-lover, they also allow you to actively enjoy the bounty of the local waterways. Whether you're an avid fisherman, crabber, boater, or just enjoy beautiful natural surroundings, Bethany Bay is the place for you to experience the joys of coastal life.
Nestled along the Indian River Bay is a very fun and challenging 9-hole par 3 golf course. Playing surfaces are comprised of bentgrass/ poa aanua putting greens, and a mix of bentgrass/ bermuda tees and fairways. Along with views of the Indian River Bay, ponds and wetlands come into play on 6 of the 9 holes. The golf course is a great experience for all skill levels as hole lengths vary from 99 to 199 yards, with an average round time of 1 hour 15 minutes. Golf privileges are available at an additional cost. Contact Bethany Bay directly to reserve tee times.
