The term cocktail table as another name for "coffee table" has been around since the 1940s. I think it was the 50s and 60s the term was used almost exclusively when getting together at people's homes for "cocktail" parties was the rage. I'm not that old but I must have heard it a lot because I still say "cocktail table".

It has come to this??? really? Lets see............a few art books in a stack, a tray......a cluster of candles.......an orchid, the real kind.......... http://www.elledecor.com/design-decorate/news/g2528/coffee-table-styling-ideas/?slide=5

Do you own or time share? I have managed vacation rentals from Vegas to the Jersey Shore and am always looking for another property if you ever want to make it pay its way. I know lots of beach lovers who'd snap it right up when you can't be there yourselves. Looks very comfortable and welcoming. How difficult is it to get from there to that stretch of water and beach in the photo?
