Liked: Check-in
Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
The property cannot comfortably accommodate 14 guests as advertised, as there are not enough beds available. The backyard was mostly dry and lacked the landscaping one would typically expect from a cottage setting. Overall, the property did not meet the standards of a luxury cottage and felt more like a regular cottage.
Spacious, newly renovated home. Positives: stunning beach front with low water levels, up to date home- catalogue worthy! Host replies in a timely manner. Close to trail Cons: The gas stove switches on extremely easily, posing a hazard if you have younger kids. Even adults were rubbing close too and accidentally turning on. Water pressure is low. No garbage disposal on site- which made checkout tedious.
