That view can't be beat - which is why we keep returning to Cove House. Since the afternoons were toasty, we opened the doors to let in the sound and smell of the ocean. Perfect. ##### Diana L.

Kitchen was well stocked with equipment for cooking and all necessary utensils. A nice little yard and deck. Close to highway, but no highway noise! The only irritation/confusion was the VRBO & Vacasa relationship. Why two businesses we had to respind to. That is not very personalised ##### Marc Ellen H.
