Great stay
Check in was easy and the place was as advertised. Close to shopping and a nice place to spend a long weekend. The neighborhood was quiet and we enjoyed our stay with the family.

Family get together/sing along
This was the first time in over 20 years were able to arrange a direct flight and get our disabled/memory impaired brother down from Michigan.The artist cottage had enough beds, and enough space for us to sing or eat together when the local family came over. It was very centrally located and easy to get anywhere we needed to go. Especially St. Williams Catholic Church when my brother was part of or leading the music. Thank you for everything.

Loved the vintage feel of this house
If you appreciate homes that are not completely renovated, this is a perfect home, still original features, but clean and well cared for. I love the bathrooms still being original, but navigating the shower knobs is a bit of a learning curve, left is hot, turn it on all the way, you need very little cold. (I just saved you 10 minutes for your vacation) Perfect home for dogs, back yard is fenced and secure. Screen porch is amazing.
Thanks for sharing your property!

Not bad, not great.
Brought my special needs client with me and purchased sheets for the bed before we went as a failsafe to not ruin the house’s linens. The master bed that’s listed as a full is a queen so we had to go purchase new sheets to fit. The bed in the master bedroom was also VERY uncomfortable. The other bed in the single bed room is listed as a queen and is a king.
The house was very clean aside from ticks and earwigs we kept finding inside, the tick part was alarming but luckily none of us ever found one stuck on us.
The beach supplies were bountiful! And the sand bottles left to collect for keepsakes were a cute touch. The back porch is a 10/10, make use of the bikes!
Overall it was fine. Good location, super close to public beach access, and cute community but, also would not book again.

Dated house
House was old with colored tile in bathrooms. It looked like the yard was in bad shape with tons of leaves everywhere. Water did not drain in Master tub. Coffee makes wouldn’t work. Toaster didn’t work either. It was nice having a back yard for the dogs and the bicycles was nice also.

Great house with a not so great experience.
Great house with a not a great experience. The house and layout were beautiful. However the furniture and beds are not comfortable at all and don’t expect a response from the management company. During our stay we had a few broken appliances (toaster and coffee maker) with no replacement offered after an email was sent. Also they do not tell you till after you book the place but they do not offer a lot of supplies, paper goods, soap, etc. we have never stayed at a place that didn’t have enough of the basics to get you thru the week. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this place when there are soo many others that have better management companies.
