Killin’ Pine Mobile Axe Range

Killin’ Pine Mobile Axe Range

Looking for a thrilling experience to be the highlight of your vacation?  Give Killin’ Pine Mobile Axe Range a call, and they’ll bring the fun right to your vacation rental!

The action takes place on a 20’x8′ flatbed trailer with a custom built safety cage, turf, lighting, and sound system.  The owners of the operation, James and Brendan Stauffer, do their best to take time and coach each thrower to help them successfully “kill pine”.  The minimum age to throw is 12 years old, and axes are sanitized after each thrower/group.  A private 2 hour rental, which would be perfect for Sandbridge vacations, typically run around $300.

The axe range will also be at various breweries throughout Virginia Beach during the week of your vacation.  Here you can throw axes for as little as $5!  These include New Realm Brewing, Farmhouse By Back Bay, Thin Brew Line, Maker’s Craft Brewing, and Deadline Brewing Project.  Specific dates can be found on their website linked below.

Beer Around Here- New Realm

Food, fire pits, fenced in children pens and fantastic beer; this edition of Beer Around Here covers, New Realm, located at 1209 Craft Lane, Virginia Beach, VA 23454.

New Realm, headquartered in Atlanta, Ga., is known for its innovation and adherence to traditional techniques.  New Realm’s experimentation pushes the boundary of expectation at the same time, never straining the limits of quality; driving for excellence in every beer produced.

New Realm is an easy jaunt from Sandbridge and an excellent place for the family to enjoy games, fire pits, inspired food, and the most crucial attraction, incredible beer. As one walks through their gate and onto their patio ringed with gas fires and milling groups enjoying the fall evenings, you know you’ve entered a “new realm”.  Entering the facility to see an expansive room walled by brick and murals, there is a massive bar with 30 taps, a colorful display of 15 or so available drafts, then mirroring the massive bar are glass industrial sized doors to watch the production teams at work.  In my experience, if you ask the bartender there is usually something not displayed but waiting for discovery.

Making sure only the most enjoyable breweries and watering-holes make it to the Beer Around Here list, my cousin and I went and had ourselves a flight of beer to make some suggestions.  A New Realm flight is made up of six snifters of any listed beer.  From the twelve tried, we decided on our favorite six “must try” beers.  From their mainstay brews, Hoptripolis IPA was our favorite.  An IPA that made me miss summer Hoptripolis is a rich hoppy IPA with hints of citrus, pineapple, and peach. Golden in color, it is a beer worthy of getting a six-pack of on your way out the door. Hazy like a Fox New England IPA, utilizing a double dry-hopped process once burring fermentation, and once post-fermentation, has a tremendous orange juice character with intense aromatics.  Another favorite tried was the Munich Dunkel Lager.  This might be caused by sitting by a fire pit as the sun disappears early on a fall night, but the rich amber lager seemed perfect for the moment.

 

Some other “must tries” if you can make a trip soon are on the small batches list. Tyrannosaurus Flex, Imperial / Double New England IPA has a summary I cannot replicate so enjoy the description form the brewer themselves, “A Hazy DIPA hopped exclusively with hops from New Zealand. Wai-is, Motueka, and Rakau hop combined with Norwegian Kviek yeast give this monster DIPA a cretaceous amount of juicy, fruity notes such as mango, pineapple, peach, apricot, and citrus. Balanced with an herbal, piney, and lightly dank full-body, this hazy beast is the ruler of the realm!”I’m not much of a cider guy, but in the fall, exceptions can be made.  If they are your cup of tea, you must try New Realm’s Inkjet Cider. Combining sweet, savory, and tart, this cider makes one think they have a blackberry mimosa, not a craft-brewed cider.

The last beer is a bit of a mystery, and I had to go back for seconds.  It is a limited brew and had a name I barely caught; the bartender just told me to ask for the Chocolate Imperial IPA, so I did and was not disappointed.  Rich, dark, heavily aromatic with a hint of spice; try ordering it and see if the bartenders can point you in the right direction.

Give New Realm a visit the next time you are in town visiting the beautiful Sandbridge Beach.  Enjoy your time, some beer, good food, and remember to drink responsibly allocating a designated driver before you go.  If your family is looking for a new place for dinner or a local attraction, just ask the Beach People at Siebert Realty and let us help you!

Our Guide to Working out in Sandbridge

Just because you’re going on vacation doesn’t mean you have to take a break from your workout schedule, if anything it means it might be time to upgrade your fitness game! Within Sandbridge and just beyond the bridge are some amazing spots to get your workout in. Here you can find accommodations for everyone from runners to bikers to water-lovers!  

∗ Heres our quick guide to working out in Sandbridge ∗


Biking

For those looking for a Breezy Ride: 

Bikes are the perfect transportation for getting from point A to B in Sandbridge! Whether you are looking for a quick way to get to the beach or down to little island park, bikes are the best way to feel the summer breeze and check out all the views. If you’re an early riser and are looking for a sweet treat, you definitely have to bike to Baja Coffee in the morning for a muffin and smoothie! 

For the Adventure Seeker:

Unique to Sandbridge is the beautiful Back Bay wildlife refuge! While you can get to the Visitor’s Center by car, if you want to adventure deeper into the park you either have to walk or bike, but biking is the most recommended because it allows you to go further into the 3,884-acre False Cape State Park. Due to its restricted access, this is one of VA’s hardest parks to access, which also makes it one of the rarest visited. Throughout the park are many trails to follow, using a map from the visitor’s center, you can choose the route that best suits you! 

For Class Lovers:

If you prefer to get your biking done stationary, don’t worry just a short drive outside of Sandbridge is the perfect cycling class for you! Cycle Bar offers many different variations of rides for customers, ranging from high-intensity full body class to low-intensity chill workouts. If you check out their website and choose the location “Red Mill Commons”, you can find their schedule and book a ride during your Sandbridge Vacation. 


Running

For the Newbie or Longtime Runner:

Stretching only 4.5 miles from North to South, Sandbridge is the perfect place for first-time runners or long distance lovers. Based on your preferences you can choose to run on the beach, semi-beach Sandfiddler road, or on the main road Sandpiper. The best time to run is early in the morning between 6am-9am before it gets too hot. One safety tip is that when running on the roads of Sandbridge, run within the bike lanes in the direction of oncoming traffic so you can see drivers coming.

For the Trail Runner:

If you prefer to get off the road during your runs, Back Bay Wildlife Refuge is the place for you. With two trails to choose from April to October, it is the perfect place to run with nature. The distance from the visitor center to False Cape is 4 miles (8 miles round trip). If you’re really up for a haul, the trail goes for 9 miles from the visitor center to the North Carolina State Line.

For maps check out: Back Bay Refuge Map

Kayaking 

For the Laid-Back (Bay) Paddle:

 If you’re looking for the perfect laid-back paddle, evenings on the bay are perfect for you. With calming breezes and gorgeous colorful sunsets, it is the perfect thing to do when the sun starts to set. During the day time, you can also bring your poles out to get a little fishing in on your vacation.

For the Sea Seekers:

Kayaking is an awesome workout! You can up your workout game by bringing your kayak to the beach! The oceanfront is the perfect place to paddle out and feel the salty ocean breeze. If you get lucky, you might also have the opportunity to see pods of dolphins playing in the waves, turtles coasting along, and pelican and osprey dive to grab dinner. Ocean kayaking is perfect for the whole family.


 Surfing & Paddle Boarding

Not Your Standard Board Meeting: 

 Surfing & Paddle Boarding is the perfect excuse to get out of the office and down to the beach! The intensity of this workout varies day to day and is dependent on your experience level and ocean conditions. With many local businesses offering one-on-one or group lessons, your trip to Sandbridge is the perfect time to learn how to Surf. Paddleboarding is a relaxing workout and takes balance, core strength, and upper body strength to the next level. If you’re up for the challenge, come rent a board from Moneysworth!

What Makes Sandbridge Special?

Sandbridge is the perfect hideaway from all the busyness of the Oceanfront District. It is the best destination for those in search of pristine sand dunes, calming sea breeze, and refreshing ocean water. Our welcoming community wants to show you the best parts of our home, so that you’ll love it just as much as we do!

Support Local Businesses

Sandbridge has been built around small businesses and values keeping business local!

The Sandbridge Seaside Market is a must stop on all visitors checklists. Not only does it have anything and everything a family would need on their trip, but it also has the world’s best donuts (okay we might be a little biased!). Made fresh every morning with a variety of flavors, they are a crowd favorite. Make sure to grab a box or two early, because they sell out fast!

The Baja is the local’s retreat. It is a place to come for delicious food, live music, and beautiful sunsets. Whether you’re are looking for the perfect place for a family dinner or to relax and grab drinks, the Baja is the place for you. Also, if you’re in need of the tasty wake-up call, head over with the sunrise and grab a cup of joe and breakfast burrito at Baja Coffee.

Bandidos is a little food truck tucked on Sandbridge road. This hidden gem is serving up delicious made to order tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and more. With great prices and outdoor seating, this is the best place to grabs a quick bite after a long beach day. There might be a little wait since it is extremely popular, but it is 100% worth the wait! Also, make sure to add churros to your next order!

 

Away from the hustle and bustle of the resort area

Located a short 30-minute drive south, Sandbridge is secluded from the bright light and craziness of the resort area. Follow down the scenic Sandbridge road and find our hidden slice of paradise. Sandbridge is special in that there are no hotels — there are only houses and condos available to rent.

This helps to keep beach traffic low and the atmosphere laid-back, which makes it the best place for families to play all day and night at the beach. From waking up early and combing the beach in the morning to using flashlights for catching sand crabs at night, Sandbridge Beach allows for all day fun. Also, don’t forget to grab some surfboards and kayaks from Moneysworth Rentals to make your beach day even more fun!

Get in touch with Nature

One unique feature about Sandbridge is that it is home to the Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge. This Refuge includes over eight miles of scenic trails, many camping areas, various wildlife, and a visitor’s center. All of which makes this the perfect place for photographers, adventures, and families to visit.

There are also many other opportunities to get your explorer on! The Blue Goose Tram runs throughout the year, offering a guided tour through the refuge and False Cape State Park to the historic Wash Woods site. Volunteer days, such as Clean the Bay Day (June) and National Public Lands Day (September) give visitors the opportunity to protect and maintain their national wildlife refuge. Fishing clinics are also offered at these volunteer events.

Just added this summer is the opportunity for kids to become Junior Rangers! Children ages 5 and up can pick up a Junior Refuge Ranger booklet filled with 19 fun activities all about nature here at Back Bay NWR. As you work through the book you can earn the title & badge of Junior Refuge Biologist, and if you complete the whole thing you become a Junior Refuge Manager!!

Sandbridge Beach Dog Rules

Wake up in the morning to a cup of coffee and a peaceful walk down to the beach with your fur friend! Beach walks in the morning are the best time to watch the sunrise, comb the beach for shells, and watch your pup play in the waves. Sandbridge beach stretches 4.5 miles from north to south end, so the hardest decision you have to make in the morning is whether to go left or right! 

Before you go here are a few rules that the beach has about dogs:  

  • During season which is defined as the time period from 6:00 p.m. on the Friday before Memorial day through 6:00 p.m. Labor Day of each year, pets are not allowed on any other public sand beaches except before 10:00 a.m. and after 6:00 p.m. If you are staying on the bayside your pups can swim all day long in Back Bay!
  • All dogs must be on a leash while walking on the beaches or the streets of Sandbridge.  For the safety of all visitors on the beach, canine and human alike, please supervise your pet carefully.
  • Make sure to bring your bags! It is important to clean up after your dogs so that all visitors can enjoy the beach as much as you and your pup. There are trash cans located at all beach entrances, so you can dispose of your trash and continue on your way!
