We looked long and hard to find a perfect\u00a0place to build a new home in the area. I remember when we drove up to the model at Sunset Harbour &#8211; my wife and I exchanged that wordless look and smile that said &#8220;This is it&#8221;. Today we can choose to enjoy sunset water views, or launch our boat from our private dock and 15 minutes later we&#8217;re in the bay, or hop on our bikes for the 10 minute ride to the beach and ocean.

The building process couldn&#8217;t be easier.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\n &#8211;\u00a0Rob Knapp, Great Falls, Virginia<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0&#8220;Top 5 List of Things to Do&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p><em>\u201cWhat do we love about the Bethany Area? It&#8217;s only 3 hours from home, making it a good weekend escape although we usually work from the beach in the summer, spending a solid 6 weeks in Bethany.\u00a0 Here is our \u201cTop 5 list\u201d of things to do:<\/em><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em>Drive up or down the coast to some of the small parking lots on the beach for a quiet beach experience. Better yet, get a surf fishing pole and permit and drive right on the beach for your private piece of paradise.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Ride your bike for miles of flat, scenic trails. <\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Send your teenagers to the boardwalk for some well-guarded fun in the sun with great people-watching.<br \/>\n<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Stay in Bethany for a great meal at the growing number of fabulous restaurants. Stop at the Parkway for the best cocktails in town.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Head to Ocean City for the Jolly Roger water park, go-carts or amusement rides. Head further down to the OC inlet for a classic boardwalk experience.\u201d<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p> &#8211; Sharon Knapp, Great Falls, VA<\/p>\n<h3>&#8220;A Fun Place&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p><em>\u201cOur home is a fun place for us and that all began with the build process.\u00a0 We were amazed at the excitement and dedication we saw from every member of the Schell team from start to finish.\u00a0 We LOVE every moment at Sunset Harbour.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\n &#8211; Joe and Tobey Frederick, Easton MD<br \/>\nWe invite you to visit us soon and start your own story in this one of a kind setting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fredericks find fun at Sunset Harbour.
