Had issues with no hot water or gas for stove but it was fixed with in 24 hours . Wish dishes and house was cleaner . Had a safety issue in living room . There was no cover on an electric outlet on the wall of bed that my younge daughter could have hurt herself badly with . Could not walk in the house barefoot due to not being able to prevent tracking stickers through the house . Did have good fishing at dock and good view .

Fishing Trip

Check in was super easy and the house is very close to the water! The bed is comfy, that’s big for us. There were people in the main house so we shared the pier, it’s private to the house but if someone is in the main house you share it. It does have an older feeling but it is cute. The kitchen did have everything we needed and was stocked well.

Wood bathroom floor slats were buckled and not able to close bathroom door, several window shades not working and had to be rolled up by hand, AC unit in front room does not provide adequate cooling. Note this was my second stay at Joy’s cottage this year. The location is great and we love the pier.

Fabulous location, house needs work

The location is perfect. The dock is perfect, the water super clear, it's close to everything. The house is a historic gem: it has withstood so many hurricanes. It's really sad to see it in such a state of disrepair. For example, there is an obious leak under the shower that is bowing the wood (original wood floor). A lot of things are old and about to break. But overall, we had a really good stay. I would still recommend this place, but adjust expectations.

Cute cottage with beautiful views and dock. Stayed as a small family with two young children who loved the front patio/porch. Very close to shops, beach, and ferry but far enough that you can enjoy the sound of nothing but waves.

Enjoyed our stay. A/Cs have mold in them. Pier is not as pictured and no lights. Concrete trucks blocked our way into driveway as are building a home next to drive. Very clean cottage.
