We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This was a perfect location for our needs during this visit. While we did not end up bring our pets, the owner was open to it and provided essentials such as pet bowls. The cottage was cozy but well appointed. The kitchen had more than adequate dishes and utensils as well as a small selection of spices, storage bags/containers, etc. The bathroom was outfitted with essentials and the inclusion of laundry was well appreciated and not typical for the size of the space. The host kept in regular touch throughout our stay to address any needs and provide reminders about trash removal, etc.

I loved my stay and felt at home from the moment I arrived. The house was impeccably clean with lots of little details that made the stay extra comfortable. It was clear the host put a lot of care into making guests feel welcomed.The home was truly pet‑friendly! (My dog Ellie says thank you for the comfy dog bed!) It is close to the beach and in a quiet area and most important for me— made me feel completely safe and at ease throughout our stay. The host was wonderful: responsive, kind, and easy to communicate with, which also was comforting.Everything was exactly as described, thoughtfully arranged, and designed to make guests feel comfortable and relaxed. I enjoyed every minute and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!
Thank you for the comfy doggie bed!

My stay at the cottage was exactly what I needed, it’s an updated beachy vibe and excellent use of every space including some rainy day puzzles and books! The small fenced in yard was perfect for the furry family members, and you cant beat the location, such a close walk to the beach, and just far enough away from the busy OOB hustle! Would definitely stay again!
