This was the perfect spot for my family. We fished off of the dock for hours and admired the view from the moment we got there. The house was wonderfully clean and had everything that we needed. We will be returning because we loved it so much!

Pinch Me is everything the house name means.

One of our favorite houses we have ever stayed at. Beautiful on the inside and out. Really peaceful and relaxing. Close to everything but with no crazy beach traffic. Will stay again next year.

Wonderful September coastal visit

Just arrive at the location and begin relaxing. The property has all updates that are needed. Location is prime and the view is surreal. Our vacation was a success due to the pinch me waterfront cottage.

This place was lovely. Description was perfect. Nearly everything was new, or very well maintained. Entire home was spotless and furniture was comfortable. Host communication was easy. Weather didn't accomodate use of kayaks but the looked nice, and the dock was set up perfect for launching. We are sad to leave, and will definately stay again if we are back in this area. Highly recommend!

Family Trip

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. We had an amazing stay and thoroughly enjoyed the stunning views, watched the sunrise every morning, and caught a lot of shrimp, fish, and crabs! Our daughter forgot her phone and the host was kind enough to ship it to us! We hope to return again soon and will definitely recommend this place to our friends and family. Thanks again for everything!

Inviting, Comfortable, Relaxing

This home is inviting, comfortable, and relaxing. The home is elegant yet simple. It is very nice and clean. It still has that new build smell. The view of the water in the back yard could be seen from the living room, dining room, kitchen, and Master bedroom. The Host stayed in touch with us. We were literally across the bridge from the ocean. Close to restaurants and retail stores. If your Looking for a lil piece of Heaven, book this place….you won’t be disappointed!
