Our Island Cottage is still new, and we’re always refining it based on thoughtful guest comments and suggestions. Every bit of feedback helps us make the cottage even better — all with the goal of creating an over‑the‑top experience for every future visitor.
We had a wonderful stay at Roger and Mary’s cottage! Everything in the house felt brand new and was kept in immaculate cleanliness. The open kitchen and living room layout made the space feel incredibly bright and spacious. We also loved the thoughtful details, like the heated bathroom floors and the fact that we didn't have to pack our own towels or bed linens—it made traveling so much easier! While the inside was beautiful, we probably spent most of our time hanging out on the front porch, which we absolutely loved. Thank you, Roger and Mary, for being such great hosts!

Thank you for the wonderful review. We’re so glad you enjoyed the bright open layout, the heated bathroom floors, and the convenience of having linens and towels ready for you. And we love that the front porch became your favorite spot to relax.
You were terrific guests — we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime.
Our family had an amazing stay at the Coastal Cottage! Roger and Mary are wonderful hosts. The house is clean, comfortable, tastefully furnished, and stocked with everything you need, right down to a thoughtfully placed extra pair of reading glasses in the kitchen.The location is great. It's a short walk to the beach, an easy bike ride into town, and on the quieter end of the island, which made for a relaxing stay.Roger and Mary made us feel like welcomed house guests. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend the Coastal Cottage.
Just finished our wonderful stay at Roger and Mary’s perfect beach cottage! My family had an absolutely amazing time. This rental is perfect. The hosts thought of everything. The cottage is spotlessly clean, the renovations are so nice, and the bedrooms are so comfortable. We all had great sleep. The outdoor lanai and rooftop sitting area cannot be beat! Not to mention the location to the beach and restaurants of Stone Harbor. No complaints at all, just can’t wait to return! The hosts were so kind and communication was excellent. 10/10! P.s. if you are an avid coffee drinker, bring a French press! Otherwise there is a very useful k cup machine which worked great, too! Thank you Roger and Mary!!

We had a very enjoyable stay at this cottage in Stone Harbor. The cottage was just right for two and the location was great. It was clean, cute and cozy.

Hey, Check out our new rebuild. It is amazing and we opened up next season early.
This is a charming cottage in a great location. Everything is geared to a successful stay- hooks in all the right places, plenty of lights, all the conveniences of home in one small package. There is a beautiful beach a short walk away. Host is friendly and available. Enjoy, we did!
Everything about the property was very good very clean. The host was very accessible lived right down the street. The only thing I would say is the bathroom is a little smaller than we we would have liked.

Jim, check out our new rental we have two bathrooms now
Super easy check in and out. So close to the beach. We had everything we wanted and needed with the house. It was so nice to come home to a quiet place after all day. Thank you!
My wife and I loved our stay! It was our first time to Stone Harbor and we were celebrating our 1 year wedding anniversary. Roger gave us amazing recommendations for nearby places. The walk was short to the beach, the cottage was quaint and clean. Everything you needed for a few night stay they provided and the communication was impeccable. Thank you Roger for an amazing few days and we look forward to visiting again!

Roger and Mary host a beautiful property and have thought of everything to make your holiday stay amazing! Everything is pristine with great amenities and attention to modern details. Roger personally checked in with us when we arrived and was available and easy to text, if we needed anything, and even included interesting details of the area.The cottage is located on a quaint, quiet historic street just a short walk to the beach- pass by a gorgeous giant old pine tree at the east end of the block on Second Avenue.Use one of the included bikes to tour the neighborhood, ride to the bay, South Point or 96th Street to shop. There's even a small market just around the corner. Chairs and a big umbrella are also provided for use on the soft sandy beach. Indulge in the wonderful outdoor shower, including a lovely soap dispenser, when you return. Then enjoy a beverage, some takeout and the interesting views of roof lines, tiny gardens and the old pine from the roof deck.We've been vacationing in SH for over 25 years and I've always wanted to stay in one of the quaint cottages. It was definitely worth the wait and we would love to return once again, to enjoy this wonderful beach escape!

Thank you for your wonderful review. We’re so glad the cottage, amenities, and quiet location made your stay enjoyable. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the bikes, beach gear, outdoor shower, and rooftop deck. We appreciate your kind words about our communication and local tips as well.
After so many years vacationing in Stone Harbor, we’re honored our cottage delivered the experience you were hoping for. We’d be happy to welcome you back for another stay.
My husband and I took a quick last minute trip to meet up with my parents in Stone Harbor. Was super surprised to find this gem last minute in July. This little cottage has everything you need, well stocked on all the little details, and very well kept.

Hey, Check out our new rebuild. It is amazing and we opened up next season early.
This tiny little cottage is adorable and what a location! On a quiet little lane, and a very short stroll to the beach. It is very small, especially the miniature shower, but we considered it to be a good value for the money in bougie Stone Harbor. The queen sized bed was comfortable for two people and one other person could fit on the little fold out couch. Rodger was very responsive and helpful via text and he was quite proactive about making sure the air conditioner was adequate for a hot August weekend! Great host! Lovely porch for enjoying the evening breeze and watching the bunnies hop around.
Great cottage. Loved our stay there. Highly recommend it. Its small, but has everything you need. The owner is very responsive and good to talk to. The cottage is in good shape, considering that it's from 1915. Air conditioner worked well. The included linens were nice and happy to have that to avoid lugging sheets and towels to the house. The house has 2 beach chairs and a boogie board out back. There is a small loft, that is good for an adventurous kid. Use a fan to cool it off. There's a shower inside and outside. Looking forward to our next stay.

The cottage home exceeded our expectations. It was quaint, beautiful, and located in our favorite part of Stone Harbor. A short walk to the beach, with chairs and an umbrella in hand. Roger and Mary were excellent hosts, attentive, and frankly nice people. Highly recommend 22 Bower Court.

Thank you so much for your kind review. We’re thrilled to hear the cottage and the location made your stay in Stone Harbor special. We work hard to keep the home spotless, comfortable, and easy for beach days, so it’s wonderful to know it added to your trip. You were excellent guests, and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime.
What we enjoy most is helping guests feel at home—whether that’s through a well-stocked kitchen, a helpful checklist, or a story about the neighborhood’s history. Our Island Cottage is a place we have lovingly upgraded and curated, and I hope it brings you the same sense of peace and delight it brings us.
