About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Lucky Buc-Pet friendly cottage perfect for a couple or small family.

This property is ideal for a couple or a small family. It has a queen bed(sheets are NOT provided), and pull out cot. The Lucky Buc adjoins the Buccaneer. There is a privacy fence separating the two, but a gate to open up if renting The Buccaneer with family or friends. We are located 0.1 mile from Zillie's, 0.3 mile from the Community Square on HWY 12 and 2.1 miles from the lifeguard beach.

We do NOT post on Craigslist, so if you see it there it is not us renting it. We only go through VRBO/Home Away.

We do not offer refunds for weather related cancellations, ferry issues or illness. We highly recommend that you purchase optional travel insurance. f you want to do early check in there is an additional $45 fee. It is extra added stress for our cleaners to have everything ready for those that get here on an early ferry. Normal check in time is 3:30 pm and check out time is 11:00. If you want to check out late it is a $100 fee.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. The vacation home also includes a coffee maker.

A nice one bedroom beach type cottage. The interior was cute and beach themed. The a/c worked well, separate units for bedroom and living areas. The kitchen had everything needed. The exterior was a bit worn and faded. Having a golf cart available was a very nice touch. Excellent and prompt communication with hosts.
