Cute house with plenty of charm
The house was perfect for our family of 4! The 3rd bedroom did have furniture but it was very uncomfortable but luckily we didn’t need it. There were plenty of towels and sunscreen and chairs for the beach. Perfect for relaxing! Nowhere good to eat, though, so buy food to cook. 😂

Great little beach cottage!
The cottage had everything we needed and was in a great location. The weather was terrible but no one had control over that. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect Spot for a Getaway
My sister turned 40 so my other sisters and our mom and I stayed here for a girl’s weekend. It was perfect. The space is gorgeous and so welcoming and the area is quiet and private. We barely left all weekend. We loved having the private beach and it was perfect to have two full bathrooms for six of us. The kitchen is huge and well appointed, and the host even left us a surprise in the fridge. I would absolutely recommend this beautiful cottage for a get away.

Well stocked, quiet area, very clean. Beds not great and showers need immediate attention. Door Screens would be an added nicety to enjoy fresh air. All in all....very nice

Beautiful, breathtaking place!
An incredible beach experience! Impressively decorated, relaxing cottage with serene views of sunrises and white swans! Everything provided; just bring yourself and your camera. Owner and property manager are great people. Enjoyed collecting sea glass! Short drive to quaint heart of town. Go to Denson's for crab roll; Wilkerson's for crab-stuffed shrimp. Shop Hall's for locally-made items and strawberry shortcake. You'll love this place! Only flaws: owner needs to fix problems with main bathroom door and deadbolt on side door... but I'm so grateful to have stayed there!

The Perfect Cottage
My friends and I spent a long weekend in the cottage and were so impressed with the property. Everything inside was fresh and modern, and the backyard and private beach were incredibly beautiful and relaxing. Every little detail was well thought out and made the trip perfect. The property manager was friendly and responsive, and my friends and I all agree we would stay there again in a heartbeat!
