We love spending time at our cottage and want you to enjoy it as much as we do:)

We own a second cottage on the property which we occasionally use. You may see us on our patio or going to and from our cars or taking our dog for a walk. There is a chance we may never cross paths.

But most important is you enjoying your vacation. We are always respectful of you and are mindful of your privacy.

Why they chose this property

Close to everything but also set back in area of small seasonal cottages. Because of this we do not have a lot of street traffic. You can sit back unwind and enjoy the sounds of the ocean.
