Housed in the 1909 Myers Cottage, we offer a welcome respite from other beach and town activities – a fish pond and Simmons skiff in the yard and a shady porch with a trolley exhibit and rocking chairs. Inside the Myers Cottage there is bedroom with period furnishings, a bathroom with 1920s bathing suits hanging out to dry, and a kitchen filled with items typical of a kitchen of the 1920s-40s. A shell exhibit and model of the beach as it looked in 1910 are other highlights.
