Excellent vacation

The host of the little red cottage really thinks of everything. Anything you would need to enjoy your stay was there including beach chairs , beach buggy , beach toys etc. back yard was perfect including the outdoor shower. We ended up having to arrive late do to me needing emergency surgery and they were extremely understanding. I hope to be back again next summer! The beaches nearby are perfect!
