Property was beautiful, large family we utilized all sleeping areas and had a wonderful stay. We arrived fairly early hoping to utilize the beach before entering seeing as we missed any traffic and the owner was very friendly and accommodating for us. Would definitely recommend for large groups looking for a relaxing stay.

Great location. Perfect for a family girls weekend. We had a blast. Walking on the beach was the highlight. The Camp Ellis general store was perfect for morning coffee and provided delicious lobsters for dinner one night. The owners were so friendly. Also the large dinning table was key for us.

Amazing Location and An Overall Nice Place

We stayed here with 10 children and 8 adults and never felt cramped. The yard and the proximity to the beach are what made our stay. Plenty of room for the kids to play and it was about 40-50 feet to get to get to the ocean.

Accommodations were perfect for our need!

Meeting the needs of seventeen adults & children is a tall order but Peekytoe Cottage did just that! The layout, spaciousness, cleanliness and fully stocked kitchen were ideal. The property manager, Nick, was very responsive during our stay as we reached out with clarifying questions. We were very happy with all aspects of our stay!

Great place!

The house and carriage house were both in good shape and are amazingly located! The property has a small beachfront and has access to the beach, which made it easy to enjoy the great weather we had. Wish it provided linens and towels, but outside of that highly recommend. Nick was also very easy to coordinate with.

Perfect for a family reunion!

Peekytoe Cottage was absolutely perfect for our Thanksgiving family reunion! The location is to die for, the carriage house was ideal for the teenage cousins to have their own space, and the kitchen was the best-appointed one I’ve ever seen in a rental. Also appreciated was the first floor bedrooms for folks who needed to avoid stairs. We had a wonderful time!
