Meme’s Guest Cottage

This home exceeded expectations. The house was lovely and well equipped with kitchenware, games, reading material, and a very comfortable King bed. Most notably, the front fenced in yard was perfect for sunny outdoor breakfasts. The large waterside yard was perfect for sunsets and a bonfire. We hope to return soon!

beauty and relaxing

This is a great location with good distance to all activities if you want to have a quiet spot to relax. It was very good for our dog to have space and easy with the fenced in yard. We so enjoyed the covered dock to watch the sunset. The view is your big reward in staying here.

Lovely Cottage!

Such a great place in a perfect location, right on the water! Everything was as described. Cottage is on a quiet street, but within a reasonable distance to stores, restaurants and golf courses. Martha, our host, was great! Check in was easy and very responsive to any questions or issues. Cottage was clean and so comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Quiet Getaway

We were looking to get away over Christmas and found this residence. Very quiet neighborhood with easy access to attractions and great food ! Home was on the water and the fishing off the dock was excellent. Highly recommend this home. Our only drawback was we don’t understand the Rocu tv setup.

Tranquil getaway cottage

Meme’s cottage is just the place to relax and enjoy life away from the real world. Nice times on the screened in porch having lunch or just enjoying lemonade and sweet tea as the breeze blows. Great time fishing and just enjoying the sand by the water. Loved watching the dolphin swim back and forth by the dock. Just pure relaxation while you’re there.
