This cottage was perfect! Great location across from beach access, very clean, new appliances, well set up for a 2-4 people. On beach road, but set back a little, so you do have some privacy. Definitely will look to stay again.

Great stay!

Our extended weekend stay here was great. So close to the beach and centrally located for our sightseeing in the area. The dual porch decks on second floor made it nice to sit in the sun out front in the morning for coffee then the evening on the back deck for the sunset and another cup of coffee.
