Would stay again!

This cottage was great for my girlfriend, our two dogs and myself. We were lucky enough to get the very first cottage on the property. The neighborhood is very quiet and we got to enjoy the nice beach breeze and deer sightings! Very convenient to walk to the beach, restaurants and shoppes. The office staff were kind and friendly when checking in as well as helping out with additional blankets and towels. They have a nice small park area for the dogs to run around and do their business and had bags easily available for pick up. Definitely would stay again!

Comfort was lacking

We usually love the Bide A Wee but this stay in the handicap room left us longing for home. The mattress was so thin and so were the pillows. The shower spills over to the drain in the middle of the bathroom which makes walking on the tile dangerous. It was quiet at night and convenient to the beach and town.

All in one stay

We always enjoy our stay here. The setting outside is peaceful and you can hear the ocean in the distance. There are plenty of sitting areas outside, an in ground firepit and bbq’s. It is very pet friendly with bags to cleanup after your pet. Our bed was comfortable, and amenities like utensils, pots and dishes were available, as well as soap and shampoo. The beach, lighthouse and golf course are within walking distance.
