Everything was as advertised! The house was extremely clean with sparkling white quartz countertops in the kitchen! It was welcoming for our pups. Also close to restaurants and a fancy Dollar General. Owner was a pleasure to deal with for check in and check out.

Great location as mentioned in ad and I felt safe. Could take more pride in some of the cleaning details. I had to clean the floor to walk around barefooted. Return vent and filter is really dirty. Mold in bathroom and kitchen. I left messages for the host and I never heard back from her via text and on listing website. It is what it is and as an adult I took care of my issue.

Cottage Stay

This little cottage is perfectly located. We walked to shopping, dining, the beach and a Mardi Gras parade. We were here for an extended stay and was able to bring our sweet fur girl which was such a bonus. Clean and just right.

This place was really cute and overall we had a great stay. The location was convenient and only a couple of blocks from the beach in a nice quiet neighborhood. Our only issue was the ac unit in the living went out during our trip but the owner responded quickly and had someone out to fix it later that evening. We greatly appreciated the quick responses and obviously that’s something out of their control so besides that slight issue we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place!
