Short Getaway

My husband and I stayed in the cottage for four nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The cottage was just lovely. It was just as described, well appointed, clean, cozy, and private. The location was great - close to great shops and restaurants and the beach. Parking was a breeze. And communication with Pat was awesome. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Quaint Bunglaow

We had such a nice time here and were so happy with this bungalow. The perfect size for two. A quaint patio courtyard that was perfect for appetizers and a bottle of wine. Super clean and nicely appointed. Can't say enough good things about it.
