Which by the way you literally parked right in front of. The walking and town experience was so much fun. Cpt. Al and staff were a joy. They only super minor issue I had was was checking in but with the help of house keeping we were in the blue corner cottage and on the beach within minutes. Best burger I have ever had was at the palms,see Shianne and great pizza and mussels at The Salty Crab..Ask for Adam.oh yeah got my 1st tat at Atomic Tattoos Jake is the man to see. Overall this was the best 2 days I have had on a mini vacay in years! Very much worth it. Thanks Cpt Al again for the great space. Just as advertised! ##### Karyn A.

It was such a cute place and perfect for what we were looking for. Walking distance to everything, steps away from the beach and so relaxing!

It needs a little love but the location is excellent and the staff very nice. The weather didn't cooperate so I didn't have the opportunity to enjoy the property as much as I would have liked. . Cap Al has lots of beach items, chairs, beach towels for your use. Once again the location is excellent for beach walks and sunsets. It is walking distance to everything. I enjoyed my visit .

Well, laid out. Plenty of towels in the shed for us to use, along with tons of boogie boards, floaty’s chairs, and umbrellas There were hooks everywhere, which made it easy to dry off swimsuits. The host friendly and available. The recreation area was just paradise. My kids were able to walk to the beach, barefoot. The only downside was that we got a lot of mosquito bites our first night. I was able to reduce it by spraying the front door with mosquito repellent, since there were gaps in the front door’s weatherstripping. ##### C M.

Maintenance crew, Dominick, was adamant with keep up and very friendly with a great sense of humor.The place was perfect- small but great for 2 people! We loved the atmosphere of the house. Beach-Tacky and definitely an escape from just being at a typical hotel. I loved having kitchen material just because cooking at home is money savvy. We really enjoyed it.. and did NOT want to leave lol We will definitely be back in touch with Al and see about scheduling another visit soon! :) ##### Maranda Y.

Jul 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Would stay again We really enjoyed the location and the little house was all we needed. Property management was on site daily for anything needed and they were responsive to needs. It reminded me of a grandparents beach house that was stocked with the older and extra for towels and dishes - which was fine with us. It isn't ritzy, but it is home like, and let's face it, you don't come to the beach to sit inside anyway. We didn't spend much time there aside from sleeping. The bed was comfortable and I slept like a baby. The negative was the floor didn't seem like it had been cleaned in a while. Karen with management offered to have someone come clean it, but I opted to take a mop and do it myself. Unfortunately, I never got around to mopping it. We just kept our shoes on. It wasn't a deal breaker and there were way more positives. The hot tub was nice. We almost bought beach chairs, but learned they provide them free for guest use. There is also an outside shower that has hot water. Overall, we enjoyed the stay and we would stay again. ##### Heather B. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Corrine F.

Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Eugene B. Jun 2, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Little Cottage Pros: Location, cute beach aesthetic, and the amenities. The water pressure is enviable! The main bedroom bed is firm but comfortable and the sheets were soft. Three teens slept comfortably enough on the fold-outs in the living room. Plenty of linens and pillows for all. Correctable Cons: The main bedroom's wall unit AC contains mold/mildew. There was significant termite residue on kitchen floor on arrival (I thought it was spilled coffee grounds at first.) There is no dishwasher in this unit, but there was no drain plug, dish rack, or dish towels with which efficiently wash and dry dishes. A can opener, spatula, and a full roll of paper towels would have been helpful. Suggestion: If possible, include updated descriptions of the specific unit and house rules in VBRO welcome email. The documentation in the room seemed to be for a different property so I stopped reading it. Therefore, I missed the requirement of reservations for the communal hot tub. This led to a minor misunderstanding with the teens and property management. ##### Eugene B. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Britni W. Apr 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication #### Okay Getaway Location was close to the water, and within walking distance of the Rockaway bar, which we enjoyed. This particular cottage was on corner of the street which I didn’t realize until I arrived. Nice that it was dog friendly, but the only close place to walk my dogs was across the street in a sparsely grassed area near construction; which was not well lighted at night. Also the room was not ready when I arrived after 4pm, which was two hours behind the set check in time due to heavy traffic as original check in time was at 2pm; so this was a little frustrating. ##### Britni W.

Mar 29, 2024 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Corner Blue Cottage The Cottage was not cleaned prior to our arrival, garbages in living area and bedroom full, sand all over the floors, and sink smelled like sewer. If windows were open in the bedroom you smelled the garbage cans outside the window. It also showed photos of the beach with blue half shells that you can rent on the beach, but that is more than a half mile walk to get to those. The beaches are beautiful in the area! Uber easily available. I would not stay in these cottages again. ##### Mary W. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott E.

Capt Al and Dominic were extremely helpful and made our stay more enjoyable. The Shipwreck bar across the street had a few rowdy patrons but overall was ok and not every night. ##### Mary Ellen S.
