Perfect for a duel family vacation!

Beautiful cottage near the beach! Perfect for two families with a total of 9 people. Floor plan was great and the cottage is well decorated. It had everything we needed from a well stocked kitchen, board games to play with the kids and beach gear! The owner was attentive and very nice to work with. Thank you so much!

Great location and plenty of space.

We had our annual family/friend vacation at the cottage. There were 9 in our party and we had plenty of space. The walk to the beach is easy and short. The listing is as advertised. Great place for a larger family!
