Our stay at Ashlee’s place was outstanding. The Home is exactly as described in the description and in the pictures. The home was very comfortable for us for our three nights stay and the fenced in backyard was excellent for our dog. The host’s communication was excellent and the check in was very easy. We’d definitely stay there again.

This was our second stay at this property, and it was just as we'd expected ... perfect! The property is lovingly and thoughtfully maintained (it has everything you need to have a care-free vacation); plus, it's pet-friendly, conveniently located to anything you need (shopping, attractions, restaurants, etc.). We love the Sea Cow Cottage and can't wait for our next stay. Many thanks to Ashlee and family for opening their beautiful, comfy-cozy cottage to the public via Vrbo. Blessings!!
