It had all of the comforts that we needed and was in a terrific location. It was quiet but centrally located for fishing, exploring the town and surroundings and visiting the spit. Our young adults enjoyed the loft as well.

The cottage was adorable, clean and very comfortable. Upon arrival we found a basket of snacks, a few specialty sodas, and half a dozen farm fresh eggs waiting for us. There were also fresh flowers! The location was a short drive to the spit and Main Street which we found to be very convenient. The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed hanging out in the upstairs living room with a view of the water in the distance. I highly recommend staying here!!
