Im so glad y'all had a nice time - I wish I knew it was your anniversary I would have had a bottle of Champagne & Flowers for y'all - Let me know when you come back :-)
We had a wonderful long weekend stay at cottage. Very clean and comfortable and walking distance to coffee shop, restaurants and town dock. Highly recommend.
The location was perfect- right across from the Harbor. Perfect sunrises and sunsets. Lots of sailboats to watch as well as many birds. Next door to 2 restaurants!
We absolutely loved this VRBO! It was in an amazing location, close to so many great spots & the water view is beautiful. Communication was awesome with the property manager. When we arrived, check in was super easy and the house was clean & smelled amazing. Definitely recommend!
