Most visitors never find it. A few minutes from the ocean, tucked behind the vacation rentals, there's a quiet park on the tidal waterway where locals launch kayaks, cast lines, and watch the marsh go about its day.
Where to park, which entrances to use, what the paid lot costs, and where to find restrooms and water on your way to The Point at Cherry Grove Beach.

A corner position on the first floor with direct ocean views and beach access. One bedroom, one bath, sleeps four — steps from the sand and 15 minutes from The Point.
Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, sleeps six — with an updated kitchen and ocean views from the family room. The space-smart choice for families and groups at Cherry Grove Beach.
