We had a wonderful stay at this beach cottage. Although it is cozy, the living area is very comfortable. We appreciated the gas stove which put out a lot of heat. The kitchen was stocked with all of the cookware, utensils and dinnerware you need. The hot tub was clean and relaxing. The entire house was clean, for that matter. Karen was very communicative. We would definitely rent this house again. Thank you!
