Patriotic Poolside Grill Out — Fourth of July at Cinnamon Shore

There's something just right about celebrating the Fourth with smoke rising from the grill, the smell of salt air drifting in, and the sound of the Gulf not far off. Cinnamon Shore's annual cookout brings neighbors and vacationers together for a classic American holiday done the coastal Texas way — sun-warmed, unhurried, and just steps from the sand. After the last burger is finished and the afternoon fades toward dusk, Beached Inn is right there waiting — cold drinks on the porch, a sea breeze rolling in, and the kind of Fourth of July evening that belongs entirely to the coast.
