It features 3 bedrooms and one bathroom. We have all the amenities that will allow you and your family to enjoy the beach and create wonderful memories. We are Pet Friendly with hardwood floors throughout the home. We still have the original hardwood floors so clean up after the little ones is a Breeze! Both the little two legged ones and the 4 Legged ones! Our beach cottage has a large yard just before you get to the beach. We have a private driveway that will allow for 2 vehicles. We have a 75" Large Smart TV along with High Speed WiFi for your streaming tv entertainment. The beach is about a 20 second walk from the back door. We also have a washer/dryer for your convenience. Our back deck allows for a very relaxing place to enjoy the little ones and your 4 legged family members. Enjoy the beautiful views of the beach/bay on our outdoor furniture and enjoy our charcoal grill for those outdoor cooking events! We also have a fire pit where you can sit outside and enjoy a campfire! This property is a bit dated as it was built during the 1940's. All systems and appliances work as they should; this is a vintage cottage on the bay that exhibits the historical architecture and features of yesterday. As such, this older home may not be for everyone. We do strive to make these older homes as comfortable, clean and cozy as possible. However it is not perfect in every way - some floors are not perfectly level, some windows do not open easily, some trim is missing around the back deck, interior doors and locks are a bit older - if these items are important to you, maybe another unit would be more suitable. That being said, our location can not be beat! Parking is right outside your door. There is a small unit above this cottage in the “attic” space. Those guests have their own entrance/exit and nothing is shared. Except the backyard and the beach! Even with a thorough modernization the property is a historical home that is now over 100 years old. It has some eccentricities that reflect building standards and designs from the turn of the last century that lends to its charm as an older beach cottage. But even so, we hope that you will love our older and charming home. Quiet hours begin at 9 PM. This is a Family/Residential unit and area. No loud music or noise. There is another unit carved out of the attic. Each unit has its own entrance and exit, only the backyard and beach is shared. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Charcoal grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washer/dryer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: Outside Smoking Only ### Location highlights - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the bay - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Kayak - Fishing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,850 square feet ## Similar properties ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/67000000/66050000/66045600/66045570/06b3df5a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Manor and Mutts #2 - Beach Front, Pet Friendly, Wi-Fi, Parking, W/D, King Bed Willoughby Spit - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.0 Wonderful 35 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-05&endDate=2025-12-06&selected=66045570&PinnedHotelID=66045570&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/70000000/69540000/69537000/69536918/18a9d006.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Rustic Ocean View Beach House - BEST Location in Ocean View! 2 bed/1 bath House Willoughby Spit - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi 9.0 Wonderful 69 reviews CA $195 CA $385 total includes taxes & fees Nov 23 - Nov 24 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-23&endDate=2025-11-24&selected=69536918&PinnedHotelID=69536918&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, sun loungers](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/68000000/67550000/67547100/67547042/eceda65b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy Historic Beach House only Steps Away from Beach and Fishing Pier!
