Everything here has a purpose

Every item at Salty Shores Retreat was chosen to create a smoother, more comfortable experience, from gathering with loved ones to carefree days by the pool.

Designed for families

Vacation should feel easy

Travelling with young children should feel like a vacation, not a packing challenge. The house keeps a high chair, a Hiccapop playard with a mattress pad, SlumberPod blackout tents, a toddler travel bed, a stroller, a baby gate, bath toys and a sound machine, so you fly light. The beach shed is stocked with chairs, a wagon, a tent, skim boards, body boards and Spikeball; the game cabinet with Monopoly, Uno and dominoes. Pool toys, life jackets and a rolling cooler are by the door.

About your hosts

We’re Matt and Haylee

We are the founders of Salty Shores Retreat and proud parents of five amazing kids. With Midwest roots and a home base in the Northeast, we know how important it is to find places where families and friends can slow down, reconnect and make lasting memories together.

Our journey began with a simple dream: to create the kinds of vacation homes we would love to share with our own family and closest friends. Spaces that feel welcoming, thoughtfully designed and effortlessly enjoyable, where everything you need is at your fingertips, so you can focus less on logistics and more on making memories. Every home we create passes one test: would we want to stay here with our own family? If the answer is not a definite yes, we keep improving until it is.

Get to know us

Our story started with a blind date

We grew up in the same hometown and were set up by our families. Thankfully, they knew what they were doing. It all led to our five beautiful kids, and life is never boring: between school events, sports practices and family adventures, there is always something happening in our house. We love sports and being outdoors. Fall weekends are sacred, March Madness is a family event, and we are happiest on the move, running, coaching from the sidelines or chasing the kids from one game to the next. Pool days are our favourite days: some of our best family memories happen around the pool, laughing, relaxing and simply enjoying time together.

Why we do this

Every home we create passes one important test

We ask ourselves: would we want to stay here with our own family? If the answer is not a definite yes, we keep improving until it is. We started this business for a simple reason: to create the kinds of places where families and friends can gather, reconnect and make lasting memories without sacrificing quality, comfort or convenience. The best vacations feel effortless. Thank you for considering Salty Shores Retreat; we hope our home becomes the setting for your next family vacation, golf getaway, celebration or coastal escape.
