Your Stay FAQ

Wild bunnies seem to have always lived in and around White Point. Many years ago, we had been babysitting a few bunnies when they seemed to have been enticed by the others around them to ‘escape’ their pen and, as they say, nature took its course. As the bunnies continued to grow in numbers, we invite guests to feed them. While they have sufficient food sources here at the beach (they love clover, rose hips, and hostas!), bunny food in bags is provided, giving the bunnies a good reason to stick around. Today, the bunnies are a permanent fixture of the resort grounds. Bags of complimentary bunny food are always available at the front desk. Be sure to check out the book I Spy a Bunny by Judy Dudar which is based on White Point! Pick up a copy in our Gift Shop.

Dramatically! Our full sand beach gives way to an incredible cobblestone beach in the winter months. An incredible 4 – 5 feet of sand washes in and out with the changing of the seasons. We consider it Mother Nature’s ‘facial’ for our beach!
