We loved the location of this cozy beach cottage. It was so close to the beach. Very nicely decorated, clean, and enough room for us all. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others!

That’s what we like to hear! Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We hope to host you again soon.
Nice place to stay and very close to the beach. With only one bathroom, I would not recommend a family bigger than 4. Some feedback for improvement would be to add a coffee table to the seating area as we had to sit in the floor to pay games and nowhere to put our plates when we ate. The cleaning service used is anything but thorough. We usually wipe down the house when we go, but our wipes were all grey, stains on the blinds and walls, and the floor probably hadn’t been moped in some time. Plenty of towels but no bath soap so bring your own. We would absolutely stay here again though.

Thanks for your review! We love hearing from our guests. We can’t wait to host you again soon.
It was good. Great location. Beach was not crowded at all and can walk to the beach. Smaller than I thought and there was no place for us to all sit together and play games. It sleeps a lot of people comfortably. The whole house swayed and rocked a little in those stilts but was ok.
Incredible views, the property had everything included for our stay. Thank you!

Hollie- Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad you enjoyed the incredible views and had everything you needed for your stay. We’d love to host you again anytime!
We enjoyed the house. We chose it for the location right past the seawall, so we would have easy access to the beach without being to far from town.

Julia - I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at the house! It's wonderful that the location, right past the seawall, provided easy access to the beach without being too far from town. If your future plans bring you back to the area, we would be thrilled to host you again.
This single floor cottage was nice and as good as advertised for our short stay. We felt pretty packed in, but no major issues. Good communication with the owner and close proximity to the beach were major plusses. Definitely worth it for the price.

Thanks for your review, Nathanial! We love hearing from our guests. We can’t wait to host you again soon.
House was super nice and steps to the beach. Enjoyable to wake up amd sit on the porch, look at the gulf and then take a quick walk to the beach. Short drive to the town was convenient with dining and entertainment options. Perfect size for what we needed to enjoy our beach getaway. Will be back to stay!
