Crab Cottage

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Crab Cottage is a dog-friendly, little unassuming cottage right on the beach. Walk in the front door, and you will see gorgeous views out the west windows. To your left are a small but efficient kitchen and dining area. The rest of the downstairs has the bathroom and living room with gas fireplace and a full-size Murphy bed. A narrow fixed ladder with rail takes you upstairs to the loft, where two additional double beds will be found (ladder weight limit 200 lbs).

The backyard has a great deck and a firepit. And of course, miles of beach. This home is perfect for the fisherman, surf kayaker, or beach bum, and is ideal for relaxing. There is a small television with DVD player, so bring your favorite movies or games and relax the night away. This home is all about getting away and spending quality time with friends and family. Parking is limited, with space for a vehicle on the south side of the home, and one in front.

Cozy, clean, and close to the beach!
Loved it - can walk right out the back door to the beach. The cottage is clean, warm and cozy and fully equipped with anything you’d need for a short or longer stay. We look forward to coming back!

We came in February so we knew that the weather would probably not be ideal. It rained a weekend but the location of this cottage so close to the beach, we were able to watch the waves

Relaxing
This little cottage was a perfect getaway for a much needed escape from the daily grind. I was very happy to have such a perfect view of the waves, even closed up you could hear the sounds of the ocean. A summer visit would be amazing, the back yard is perfect.

The crab cottage is not really big enough to accommodate 6 . The loft is small and tall person could not stand up. Ladder was extremely steep. Views were great and accessible to beach awesome. Very clean

Little Beach Cottage
We loved this place. Tiny, old and a little rough around the edges, sure, but everything you need is there, is functional, and is as advertised. It's cozy and most importantly, you won't find a better location and view. The ocean is Pacific Ocean is your backyard.

Crab cottage
Pretty much everything we needed was there. Beautiful deck and view right on the beach. The crab on the side of the house is a nice touch. The beds were very comfortable. We had a nice cozy stay.

Has a great deck and yard facing the beach. Large windows give a view during bad weather. The cottage is aging and some furnishings are not comfortable (table too high, etc. Bed very comfortable.

Crab Cottage
The little cottage is exactly as described. It is very tiny but adorable and comfortable. Some cons would be that the stairs to the loft are a little steep but our child used them with no problems. The only real issue we had was that the BBQ Grill is advertised as a propane/gas grill but when we arrived it was a charcoal grill. And due to the fire bans we had to use the kitchen stove but thankfully it did come supplied with pots/pans. Some of the appliances, furniture and bathroom are a little outdated...but what this little cottage lacks in extra amenities is definitely made up for with the ocean views and easy access to the beach with private paths leading directly from the back yard. If you do not need all the extra bells and whistles or traveling with kids and pets this place is perfect. It does have a camping/cabin feel, which we love. We would definitely stay again!

Beach Cottage by the ocean
We loved the ocean view. It is a very cute cottage and very easy access to the ocean! It is a little older, but very comfy.

Beautiful location
We absolutely loved this quaint cottage! it’s a bit off the beaten path while still being very convenient to get to. You can’t beat the absolutely stunning ocean views and beach access. We loved the old school feel of the space. Visitors should note that the upstairs loft bedroom is only accessible via a very narrow and steep ladder stair situation. The restroom is also very tight quarters. We did not mind this, but that would effect booking if mobility and the age of guests (particularly small children or older folks). We had hoped to work from the space and as there was Wi-Fi we were not too concerned about being able to do so. However, the Wi-Fi seems very intermittent. So if that’s an important part of your stay, be sure to take into account. Overall we absolutely adored this little retro beach cottage and can’t wait to come back!

It has a wonderful ocean view. It was a little older but still very cozy. It had easy access to the ocean. The loft had some narrow stairs to go up and down, so need to be careful. The deck on the back was very nice to sit and watch the ocean waves.

honeymoon
Pros: Very cozy inside and out. Well-kept yard and path to beach. Cons: We could not find a key to lock the digital lock and we were not told if there is a key. We had to leave the cottage unlocked when we were exploring, and when we departed. The toilet paper provided was absolutely not useful - it had to be folded at least 8 times to be sanitary. We bought our own at the local store.

Beautiful and serene
This was such a cozy cottage with a peaceful and serene view. We loved waking up every morning to the sounds of the ocean and seeing the view from our bed downstairs. The upstairs feels a little cramped and stairs are steep but since it was just two of us we didn’t use it. It was wonderful that we got to bring our two dogs they loved sitting at the window too!

The beach is everything
Loved having the beach Right There! Cozy & funky place with lots of space heaters for warmth. Still big issues with WiFi and cleanliness. Bring your own extra blankets because there are none provided. Would think twice before staying again, and would only do it because of the beach.

So cozy and relaxing.
The two of us really enjoyed our stay here and it was exactly what we wanted. We loved the rustic and old feel of the cabin and it was the perfect size for us to relax by the ocean! Hopefully will come back another day.

Retro funky fun
The proximity to the beach and the view from inside as well as the fire pit can’t be beat! The cottage is your old fashioned funky beach shack. The beds are comfortable and the furniture adequate. Just make sure that you request a thorough cleaning!

It's the perfect little cabin for those on a budget. If you're a high brow person then this cabin is not for you . What it lacks in luxury it more than makes up in the view and sorry walk to the beach.

Cozy small oceanfront cabin
Would definitely stay again . Pros vs Cons.. Pro: The beach location/view is prime, the home is fully stocked with everything you need (plates, cups, utensils, linens, toiletries, dog bowls etc), TV seems to be upgraded from what’s displayed in photos, it was warm and cozy this cold winter month. We had a great, relaxing time! Also enjoyed some clamming . WiFi (once you figure it out). Con: The check in instructions need to be updated and it was frustrating that this has been mentioned in other reviews and not done. Those reviews were helpful to get us through it! Customer service were trying to be helpful but not able to answer questions. The lock to enter code is directly on the door, not to the right of entry as directed. The WiFi username and password provided are totally wrong and customer service are unable to help. Thanks to a previous review, I knew to look at the box, flip it upside down and you will find network name and security key (password). There is no microwave as pictured but there is a toaster and fully functional kitchen.

Great getaway
The location with the beach steps away and situated on a quiet street is ideal! Great yard for sitting around the campfire! The cottage is a rustic beach cabin with the necessities available. We didn’t need the beds upstairs, which was a good thing because the stairs looked scary. Overall a wonderful stay at the beach at the Crab Cottage!
