Beautiful house, perfect location!

Lorraine's Beach Cottage was a great house for my family! We had 4 adults, 2 kids (7 and 4) and a senior, and everyone had plenty of room to sleep and relax at the house, with very easy access to the beach. The house is large and filled with light, and the owners (who are extremely kind and responsive) provide numerous beach amenities (cart, chairs, umbrella, cooler). The porch and hammock are especially nice for hanging out in the early morning or after the beach. And we loved being right in the middle of town. It was super fun and convenient to be able to grab the kids an ice cream after the beach, visit the pier, get a good meal in a restaurant, and enjoy the July 4 fireworks on the beach (all of which we did) with just a short walk. Highly recommended!

Perfect quick getaway!

There were 6 adults and a one infant, and we never felt crowded. Well equipped kitchen, Loved the coffee pot with option for full carafe of coffee or individual pots. The screened porch and hammock were great. Our granddaughter, only 3 months, loved being rocked on the hammock. It's a very short walk to the beach. Quiet side of the beach area, rarely heard anyone else while enjoying the porch. Good selection of books and games. Highly recommend.
