We had a great week! The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. The house was pretty well stocked with everything we needed. The bed linens and towels were nice and clean. It was just me and my wife and we had a very relaxing week. The only issues we had was the grill wasn’t working due to being old and rusty; the master bed was really firm and low to the ground, and we couldn’t find where to hook up the hose to rinse the sand off our feet. The patio fire pit was out of propane so we didn’t get to use it.

November get away

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The beach was a nice exercise walk, There were no sand spurs in the yard and for that we were very thankful! We had everything that we needed except a softer bed. Since we stayed 12 days and nights we did miss our bed. The manager was nice to deal with.

Great getaway to beach community

This is the perfect getaway for a relaxing beach vacation or log weekend. House was exactly described. Very clean. The amenities were perfect. Great neighborhood. It was very quiet and relaxing. A short walk to the beach. Stores were nearby for supplies. Great backyard for relaxing and watching the sunset. The host was very accommodating. The check in was simple. I highly recommend.

Awesome beach stay with pups

Great little house to stay with dogs. Newer appliances and close to a nice quiet beach. Allison was easy to communicate with. Did have a Bear visit the garbage can outside a couple of nights. We would definitely stay again with our pups.

Loved our stay!

Adorable house, very clean, comfortable beds, wonderful fenced in yard with fire pit, quiet neighborhood and just a few blocks from the beach! Perfect size home for my husband and I and our 18 year old daughter. The use of the beach wagon was a nice bonus. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you!

Quite Neighborhood

It was just my mother & I so it was perfect. Mom has to use a walker to get around & there was plenty of space for this. Everything was clean & neat and just a beautiful house. The whole neighborhood was clean & quiet. Definitely recommend staying here.
