We absolutely loved this place! The size, amenities, parking, beach access, and nearby sites were second to none. We felt very at home! The place was clean, but some issues in terms of linens, tubs, walls, floors that can’t get all the way clean due to wear and tear. Not a big deal at all and did not affect our stay. We would happily come back!

A great location for a great value!

We loved our stay here! It was literally just a short walk to the beach and the place had great amenities. Everything was very clean and the beds were super comfy. Would definitely stay here again.

Really enjoyed our stay here with family. It was great having more than two beds so nobody had to sleep on a pullout. Beds were comfy and the space was clean. Proximity to the beach was great, just a short walk across the road and through the parking lot. The road was a little busy during peak times, but otherwise not bad. Also the cottage did shake when walking across the room. Everything was as advertised and the host was very responsive. Thanks for a great stay!

Wonderful location! House was a great size for what we needed. The house is cute but needs some tlc! Beds are comfy but the pillows are horrible. Bring your own if you can! You can not adjust the AC lower than 72 so at night it is pretty hot. This was out first time staying in a house on stilts, it moves a lot! Anyone on the deck, the house moves, washer/dryer on the house moves. There is a decent amount of kitchen equipment for cooking but there was only 4 forks so with a house of 7 we had to use spoons for most of our meals. Overall nice place to stay. Hosts were very nice and very quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had.

Spacious beach house

Our stay was fabulous. For my family of 5, there was plenty of space and comfort. We loved having two bathrooms, and there was a nice convenience store and restaurant a block away. We came for the festival, the shuttle was right across the street and we did walk back a couple times also which was not too far maybe 25 minutes. The beach access is also across the street and was so lovely. The only issue I had was with the app I believe, I messaged the host to ask for an early check in and could not view the response. Stay at this place, it made our trip so awesome!

The best beach booking ever!

First of all - the service. WOW. We searched for hours before we finally chose where we wanted to stay for our family vacation - and we were SO glad we chose this beach cottage. There is just enough room to both feel cozy and homey, but it is very nice and well-kept, which prompted us to take pictures of just how pretty the property is, both inside and out. The beds were EXTREMELY comfortable. The bunk beds and full sized bed in the extra room (room aside from the master bedroom) makes families with multiple children not go through the hassle of finding somewhere that has enough room for kids to sleep that isn't on a pull out couch. The full size fridge and freezer made our stay with children very convenient. The stove and oven work properly. It is easily accessible and parking was never an issue. This cottage is not in a "loud" area of town, and is very peaceful. There are seats to sit on the balcony. The pool is very nice and well-kept as well. The kids said they didn't know if they liked the beach or the pool more, which is surprising because they absolutely love the beach. There are dishes there, so well stocked that we did not need to buy anything. The washer and dryer was a HUGE plus. When we arrived home, I had very minimal laundry to do when we got home. There is a water spigot below so you can rinse off sand before going up to the cottage. There were plenty of cleaning supplies, a very nice large-capacity dishwasher. There is a convenient store w/i walking distance.
