Wonderful!

The cottage is absolutely charming, well furnished, spotless, and cozy! We had a wonderful stay - the cottage is close to the Seawall and not far to the Strand. The neighborhood is lovely too - I can't wait to return to your beautiful cottage!

Perfect Getaway!

We adored this beach cottage, sometimes beach rentals feel a bit cheap or lack a comforting energy - this was not the case here. We felt immediately at home, as did our dog (who typically waits until the last 5 minutes of a trip to feel safe!)! We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay and plan to be back in the future. We loved the abundance of windows which brightened up the space and made it feel larger, and loved that there was a sound machine in the bedroom!
