Quiet area, right across from a very small beach access point, easy walk and a relatively quiet beach. Cabin was clean, plenty of room. The tap water.... bring your own water for drinking and coffee.

Wonderful, quaint little cottage

My family and a close friend recently stayed at this property for an entire week and it was true to it's description 100%. The best part of the cottage was the proximity to the beach, even my daughter who ended up on crutches over our vacation could easily walk to and from the beach every day. Restaurants and groceries all were super close as well. The cottage was decorated beautifully and the space was renovated perfectly to make up for it's small size. I would say the kitchen may have been a touch smaller than expected, but I was expecting small so I cannot complain! There were a few downsides that I recommend should be upgraded in the cottage. First the washing machine and dryer are OLD and you cannot run the washer and stay in the cottage (much less before bedtime) as it causes the entire cottage to shake. I also left with 4 pieces of clothing with rust stains which did not make me happy. Oven mitts could not be found. We needed the heater on our last night, we woke up to the cottage being around 52 degrees and after turning on the heat as we packed to leave, it took 2 HOURS for the temp to go up TWO degrees. We checked out and left at that point so I'm not sure if there is a problem or it just takes forever? Lastly, renteres be aware this an old renovated cottage and the musty smell is not going anywhere. Overall, I highly recommend this rental!
