Perfect for a couple or small family. Excellent location. Had a great stay and would certainly reserve this house again. ##### Tom B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bill B. Jul 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Close to the beach! The cottage suited our family of five very well. My husband loved how well equipped the kitchen was. My son did a lot of fishing from the pier and my daughter biked easily in the morning to get coffee. The newly renovated outdoor shower was awesome! The cottage is well kept and all of the beds were comfortable. Being on the beach road made our beach access easy. Would definitely reserve this again for a vacation. ##### Bill B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Kaitlyn L.

I was impressed how well equipped the kitchen was. The walk to the beach is so easy and short—— we were surprised there was a wagon and additional beach chairs to bring. We had brought our own thinking it may not be available. Great visit and we will be back! ##### Rebecca R. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachel E.

Jul 20, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute and good for family We typically get a beach front condo, but with the kids getting older we needed space without going over budget.The cottage served our needs well. Head south 6 houses for beach access. The kitchen had everything you could probably need for cooking meals at the house. Lots of hooks for hanging wet towels, etc, which makes the stay easier and we rarely find. Also, laundry lines outside. The car port was new for us and was such a perk. It's not a pristine, newly renovated home: more like going to stay at a friends cutely decorated beach house. ##### Sarah L. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matthew B. Aug 7, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location Painless process...the property was well taken care of and perfect location to the public access for the beach. ##### Matthew B.

We we're close to two public beach accesses and it was a short walk to and from the beach. Plenty of memories to look back on from this week. I would totally recommend this house to friends and will see if it's open next year! ##### Jodie G. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Homer T.
