This cottage was perfect for our multi-family getaway. Everything was so comfortable- we woke up each morning completely rested & rejuvenated. Dinning & living room so comfortable too! The beach equipment is a wonderful added bonus! The kids enjoyed the bunk beds, open floor plan to run & frolick, and the back yard. Afterhours us adults spent majority time front porch & back porch sitting to catch up and reminisce in fond memories growing up. We enjoyed the Blue Starfish and thank you John!!
