Easy access to the beach, cozy bedrooms, well equipped kitchen, 2 bathrooms (small & very small but both adequate), wonderful long windowed room facing the sea and sunrise, back deck with picnic table. We wanted a quiet place on the water for a weekend of relaxation and good seafood nearby. This wonderful place was exactly what we hoped it would be.

We very much enjoyed our stay. Thursday. This well-loved home is in a beautiful location. The spaces are tight but that wasn't a surprise. We had a great time. We couldn't figure out how to get the futons open, or the outside shower to turn on...but to be fair, we didn't reach out to the host to ask about it.

We just returned from our way too short stay at this place amazing gem. The location is 100% why I chose this home BUT discovered when we arrived that everything inside out out was well thought out for our comfort and enjoyment. Literally anything you could think of was here in case you forgot something or decided you wanted to do more than sit and enjoy the tranquil beauty of your surroundings. Communication was on point. Love this place and plan to visit again!

The host was excellent at communication. It was our first time with the baby; everything was clean, and I could even do floor (tummy) time with the baby. Also, the private beach on the property was a gem as well! Kayaks were also used, and they were very sturdy and good too. This property was good for viewing sunrises and wildlife. For July 4, it was perfect because it was quiet. I want to stay there again.

This cottage was the perfect little getaway, very cozy and intimate with everything you could possibly need for a weekend away from the world. The beach was beautiful with great sand and nice water, and the kayaks were a treat to use. The house was equipped with everything we could have needed and more. Would love to come back!

Loved the beach access and cozy atmosphere

We had a great stay at this property - we loved being able to walk right outside and be at the beach and having meals on the back porch where we could appreciate the view. The property owners were extremely helpful and communicative, and the neighbors were all very welcoming. The beach was perfect for our 2-year old (small waves and plenty of room for digging in the sand), and the house was cozy and met all our needs.
