We loved staying in this quiet coastal cottage! Close to downtown while still an intimate setting. Hosts were extremely accommodating and communicative. Would highly recommend and would not hesitate to stay again.
This is a precious little house! The owners have it decorated so nicely and the furniture was so comfortable. The house is located very close to the beach and lots of stores and restaurants.
Mind you the cottage is old and for the age it’s adorable. It was perfect for my daughter, her dog and myself. Yes you hear a train go by but it wasn’t loud. Very quiet area people were friendly, when you bumped into someone. We did have an internet issue but it was taken care of quickly. The owner and staff are great very responsive. One thing that I found not as I thought, was the yard, was very small not room for a dog to run around. We enjoyed our stay!! Thank you!
We were amazed by the great location and comfort of this cozy home. We had an easy walk along the river just out our front door. The home has a spacious, well-appointed, fenced in back yard that was perfect for our dog to play and great for us to hang out in. Minutes from shopping, dining and a short drive to the beach. Highly recommend!
Our month long stay was great. The cottage was so beautifully decorated. We did have issues with paying for the cottage. I had to contact the VRBO folks each time a payment was due. Overall the property manager quickly addressed any issues. We would stay there againn
Great sight centrally located to our visit in a quiet neighborhood, with everything we needed. Loved having the washer and dryer available for use! Great host communication
The place was cozy, hosts were very thoughtful and always responsive. The house was well equipped with outdoor space and minutes walk to the river. Will stay again!
