The “cottage” exceeded our expectations! We were truly surprised at just how large it was when we entered. It was a perfect size for our family of 5 (although it can easily accommodate up to 10 people). The onsite inground pool is an added bonus. It was great for evening swims. We loved it so much that we booked for July 2024 before we even left!! We’re looking forward to another week at Pelican Cottage! ##### Ann H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Melissa K.

Fairly minor problems including questionable items on one bed and very stinky slow drains in one bathroom. The host was responsive and apologetic, which is appreciated. We generally had a very nice stay and the house is as advertised.The kids loved the pool. We had 10 people stay and it was surprisingly spacious and comfortable. ##### Melissa K.

This is our first time staying at this cottage. We love the area and have stayed in the same neighborhood previously. The cottage is great. Beds are comfortable, close walk to town and the beach. The beach toys and equipment were far above what is typically found in a vacation rental property We will definitely be going back. We had one small issue and the owner was very easy to reach and took care of the problem quickly ##### Larry H. Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jill R.

The house is equipped with a great wagon and toys for the kids. We had a colder week but the pool was super warm so the kids swam everyday. There is lots of space for everyone. Virtually no negatives about this house. ##### Jill R. Stayed 10 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amie P.

The house was perfect for the 9 of us. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking for all of us. The pool was nice to come back to after hours at the beach. It is a good walk to the beach but worth it, as it was not busy at all where we were (even on Memorial Weekend). We enjoyed being able to walk to Starbuck’s and Ben & Jerry’s. The sunsets at the beach were truly amazing and not a single night looked the same. We would love to come back one day. It is officially our favorite beach vacation ever. ##### Amie P.

Pictures don’t do it justice - family that arrived before us called while we were a few miles out and said to go ahead get ready to be surprised. My in-laws rented the property next door which was super convenient for our large family and we had plenty of room. It made for a trip we won’t forget. So much fun. Being able to walk to St Armands Circle was the icing on the cake. Beautiful beach, pool, amenities..too much to list. We look forward to booking this property again. ##### Chad W.

Aug 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful property Loved the short walk to the beach - it is far enough from the public access point that it was not crowded at all. Kids had a blast diving for sand dollars. Easy walk to the circle with so many nice shops and restaurants - very pedestrian friendly. The arcade was a hit with the kids (and adults). The property was very well maintained. Extremely organized, with everything labeled, making things easy to find (and put away). Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The owners have a very detailed binder with things to do, check in/check out info. Lovely place that I highly recommend. ##### Becky F.
