This home is immaculate! I brought two teenagers with me and they enjoyed the game room. My pups loved the backyard and I appreciated the cozy feel of the house. The beds are very comfortable and the pillows are nice. The host’s communication with me was prompt and helpful. If you are going to Ocean Shores you must stay at their home! Thank you so much for everything.
This house was perfect for our stay, comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, great yard for pets and relaxing, and the game room was fun! The host was very responsive.
This was a nice spacious place overall for 2 couples and a dog. There were a few cleaning issues (like hair in tub, floors that needed sweeping/vacuuming). But the biggest challenge we had were with the several thorny grass burrs in the backyard that got into our dog’s paws. We had to get them out of his paws several times before we realized where they were and it made the fenced backyard unusable.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the Blue Anchor Cottage, and we’re sorry about the cleaning issues and the trouble the grass burrs caused your dog. We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention and are addressing both with our cleaning and yard teams. We want every guest—and their pets—to have a clean, safe, and enjoyable stay.
This was a beautiful property and fit our needs perfectly. We loved all the amenities and the fenced back yard. The open floor plan and large bedrooms were very comfortable and it was very quite around the property. We will definitely be coming back!
A cute, cozy place. You can hear the ocean from outside. It fit our family perfectly and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again .
Kitchen was well stocked and appreciated spices and oil. Would still like a drip coffee maker. Everything for the dog was there and was also appreciated including the backyard easy access. Bed, bedding and towels first rate, which I value. Would highly recommend.
We had an amazing visit to Blue Anchor Cottage. It was our 2nd tine staying there. The house is immaculately clean. I took my Mom who is 80 and Grandsons who are 11 & 14. The house is suited for everyone. Wide hallways and ADA accessible shower and a game room for the kids. The kitchen is well stocked and the fully fenced yard is perfect for my Moms little dog! We will be back again, the house is perfect for us.

Really great place, very clean, well equipped, inviting, and you hear the waves.
This stay was amazing. The host was very responsive to our needs, and was even able to accommodate our dog at a last moment notice. The house was wonderful. Clean. Quiet. Loved that we could have a small fire in the backyard for some smores. Definitely plan to stay here again in the future.
The place was perfect. lean and neat and the Christmas tree was something we were not expecting. Close to town but far enough away that it was quiet. The dogs enjoyed their space as well. would definitely visit here again.
It was a wonderful home to stay in! We greatly appreciated all the activities to do after a long day at the beach. Perfect home for children! We would definitely come back for a longer stay.
This is a really lovely comfortable home with great amenities like a nice kitchen, electric fireplace, laundry, comfy beds, fenced yard and thoughtful touches like dog bowls and towels for furry friends. It was perfect for us!
