About this property

Two levels of porches designed for outside living in comfort, give you water views all day! A grill on the upstairs porch right off the kitchen allows for fun time together while preparing your meals!

Had a great stay at the sunset cottage! Great layout of rooms we had a girls weekend there. There is a small kitchenette and extra fridge downstairs with the game area and the sunsets were awesome! Quiet area, host was very responsive and there were even K cups there for coffee! Great little spot and easy to follow instructions. We will be back.

We loved the house! The floor plan was great and it had all the amenities we wanted. It was very clean - just delightful, really. We ate out on the covered deck every evening. We loved the fire pit and ping pong and the other games. Shelly was very responsive. Appropriately named Sunset Cottage! The sunsets were beautiful.

Fantastic home on a peaceful cove

This was a great stay for us. The house was beautiful and modern with all the amenities. The kitchen was nice and the back covered porch was exceptional. Plenty of spaces for the family to spend time together (or apart! :-). The outside spaces were great. Sitting on the dock for sunrise and sunset were worthy of the trip. Host was UBER communicative and very very responsive and helpful. Best ever. Thanks Shelly for a great experience.
