I love that thing! Maybe one day it will dock with the mothership aka Hilton House.

Far Out. Does anyone know any info about the house? When it was built, did it suffer any damage during the last few storms etc? The website does not give any history.

Any info would be interesting.

This spaceship cottage has been around as far back as I can remember when we used to go to P'Cola Beach, late 50's or early 60's. Brings back so many memories.
