Wonderful week in February 2025
What a place! I was wowed by all the things you would not expect to have in a rental. To name a few simple things like dishwasher, laundry detergents. Soap, shampoo, paper towels. I have stayed at much more expensive places and had none of these simple items. The place is decorated very nicely. Comfortable beds. I mean a short walk to the beach what else could you need. Great place. Will stay there again. Hopefully soon. Georgia Girl

Cozy Cottage
Shipwreck Cottage was great. We really liked the location.The cottage was well supplied except for two items. There was not a clock in the cottage and there were no lamps in the bedrooms. We would have liked to have a clock in the bedrooms and we would have liked to have lamps on the bedside tables in the bedrooms. It would also be nice to have a clock in the living room/dining area. Everything else about the cottage was very good.

Shipwreck Cottage was great!
We enjoyed our long weekend at Shipwreck Cottage in December 2024. Easy walk beach. The house is located in a cute little community with plenty of areas around to walk our dogs. We thought we were going to have a scheduling conflict, and the owner was more than willing to help us with an alternative booking. As it turns out, it wasn't needed, but the helpfulness of the owner was much appreciated. Its a nice, clean, well located property. Book it!

We stayed over the weekend and it was absolutely flawlesses with the location & the house itself. There were zero bugs inside (not even any tiny spiders by the door or windows), very cozy furniture, no loose sand or trash anywhere, and generally just an amazing place. Me & my girlfriend would definitely go again if I had the chance :)

This unit was very clean, which was greatly appreciated. The only change I’d make is that the shower head is really high for shorter folks. An extra shower head holder installed a little lower would be nice. Otherwise, the unit was absolutely perfect! We loved the small community of houses. Thank you!!

Clean, updated and walkable to the beach
Excellent place for our beach trip. Owner may want to list that beach towels are on site so renters don’t have to bring their own. Also, a small gate at the back porch stairs would be nice to corral pets/kids if they decide to gather on the back deck for a drink or meal.
