Our cottage was homey and welcoming. We had all the essentials we could possibly need. The kitchen was very well stocked and we appreciated the labels so we could return items to the right place Bedrooms were a great size and beds were comfortable. And of course pig pong and Pac-Man were an hit. We enjoyed our stay and would certainly visit again.

Great stay with a big group of family. Unlike most other properties around it, this is an older cottage; it exhibits more wear but also way more charm than the new builds, and it has enough updates to keep it comfortable. Very spacious and the porch was great. We had one elderly guest for whom the lack of railings in the showers and bannister on the second floor staircase was a challenge, but this didn't bother anyone else. For beach gear, the property provided a ton of great chairs and a wagon, but the only umbrella was broken and the canopy was missing pieces and difficult to make work. A great trip overall.
