Super cute cottage close to the beach

I found a last minute deal with this cottage, and the owner was extremely easy and very responsive when arriving early the cottage was already everything was clean and better than the pictures. The outdoor shower was great. I would definitely recommend this cottage and come back again.

Adorable clean renovated cottage near Long Sands

We loved our stay at this beautifully renovated cottage. Carrie has thought of everything you could need! It was so nice to have beach chairs, toys, and games to borrow and not worry about bringing them from home. Carrie helped us find a kid friendly restaurant our first night and was pleasantly accessible throughout our trip. We highly recommend staying here and hope to again next year!

Charming cottage

A sweet place full of perfect touches. Minor glitches are inevitable anywhere but the host is responsive and respectful. A rainy weekend was made enjoyable in large part because of the warmth and comfort of this cottage. Will happily recommend.

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.
