These are the requirements for an "Accessory Structure"

There is indeed a height limitation.

The size and location of accessory structures are strictly regulated within the waterfront buffer, which is the area of the property that extends 50 feet landward from the reference line.

For a comprehensive explanation of the accessory structure limitations, please see the Accessory Structure Fact Sheet. Adobe Acrobat Reader Symbol
Accessory Structure Limitations within the Waterfront Buffer:

Height: 12 feet maximum 1
Size: 1.5 square feet per linear foot of shoreland frontage 2. For example, a property with 100 feet of shoreland frontage is limited to 150 square feet of accessory structure area.
Setback: At least 20 feet from the reference line.
May not be built on or into land having greater than a 25% slope.
May not be converted to living space (e.g. closing in with windows, adding plumbing).
Must be located in a manner that minimizes impacts to natural groundcover.
If removing trees or saplings is necessary to locate the accessory structure, tree removal must meet the limitations described within the Vegetation Management Fact Sheet
