Historic Cottage at the Cove at Lover's Point

Home Away From Home

Barbara was an amazing host and helped us above and beyond our needs. The cottage is in a very central quiet location and has everything you need and more. We have stayed in the area several times now and just love this location. We can walk everywhere or it’s a quick Uber if needed. Plenty of parking in the street. An added bonus was the use of the aquarium passes. In all our visits we had not been there but this time, thanks to the use of the passes, we went. Looking forward to returning one day soon.
