Great property, nice host
Very nice and clean property. Particularly bathrooms are modern and well kept, which is important when large group is going. Only caution, the nearby beach is small and could be crowded. There is a marina near by, make sure you book in advance if you are planning to rent a boat 🚢. Overall we had a great stay Host was nice, prepared everything for us priori to our arrival, met us at the property and explained everything. Only

Very bad customer services
My cousins was uncertain about coming with us to the cottage, so we contacted the property owner to let them know there might be more people staying; however, it was an unpleasant conversation. She was screaming on the phone that she would have to charge more, and she would count the number of people. She actually did and yelled at us which scared everyone off; especially we had 6 kids there. We didn’t care about the extra fee we were paying but the attitude Vicki showed toward us were extremely unacceptable, which ruined our moods. We booked for 3 nights, everyone left after 2nd night, only 1 couple stayed to go fishing.

Nice Cottage... Intrusive Owner
My friends and I rented this cottage for a long weekend. At the time of renting, the cottage rental price was determined by a daily rate, not the amount of guests (there was no up charge for extra guests either). There were supposed to be 4 us staying the entire weekend. 1 friend got called into work early so he had to leave early so we ended up filling his spot part way through the weekend with another friend of ours. Our other friend arrived Friday night, while the other was going to be leaving Saturday morning (he had a few beers and didn't want to drive at night). On Saturday morning, the owners of the cottage drove up to the house and called all of us multiple times (this was around 9am when we were still sleeping). The owner yelled at us for 'lying' to her about who was staying at the house and essentially extorted us for more money (even though we didn't break any of the rules on the VRBO website or listing - the listing itself written by the owners says you can have 10 people stay). This was a really stressful experience and negatively impacted our stay, which was unfortunate since we liked the cottage and location. If you value your privacy and want to actually be able to enjoy your vacation without being harassed, I would not recommend staying here.
