Great stay!

Very easy and even cuter than the photos! Perfect for our family with an infant. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking, and it was a very short walk to the beach. A great value!

Nice weekend getaway

This place was very clean and nicely decorated. It was a great location and short talk to the beach and just the right place for a girl's weekend away. The only thing to note is the listing says there are 2 double beds in the one bed but they are actually twin beds. But we greatly enjoyed our stay!

Will stay again!

Our stay was excellent. We loved the proximity to the beach. Quiet, low traffic area. We liked having the washer and dryer- nothing better than coming home with clean laundry! We will definitely be coming back :D

Beautiful cottage by the harbor.

We loved this cottage, so clean and lovely decor. More than ample towels and supplies. The property owner made everything easy as far as entering and leaving the property.

One off thing

Overall, the property was very nice, the house was well kept and the location was amazing. The only negative thing about this house was the smell coming from the fridge. Anytime we opened the fridge living area smelled like crab. We had to take our produce out of the fridge because we had it in there for about 20 minutes and once we removed it, it tasted and smelled like crab. Besides the crabby fridge I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a sweet weekend get away!

The house was perfect size for our family of three and great proximity to the beach and town. There are beach chair for use at the beach, but no umbrella or beach towels. Fortunately, we found a reasonable umbrella rental. It would be helpful to include information on umbrella rental options in your listing. We also didn't know that we needed bottle water for the coffee maker. That would also be helpful to know before we got to the house, as well as the type of coffee maker in case we wanted some specific coffee or decaf. It did take the owner extended time to respond to any of my questions. I had asked about beach towels when I was packing the night before we left and didn't get a response for more than 24 hours. Fortunately we packed beach towels. I also asked about the bottle water for the coffee maker and if the water was drinkable at the house when we arrived and saw the sign. I did not get a response until we checked out of the house 48 hours later, which wasn't helpful at all. Overall, the house and location were great, but the responsiveness of the owner was horrible. I'm glad we had no true emergency while at the house. There were a couple of things at the house that need attention. The fridge smelled like fish, the toilet seat was very loose and sliding all over, and there was no creamer for coffee as indicated.
