We recommend bikes or a golf cart to get around.

This place was fine for what we needed. It'd be great if there was a bigger sink to wash dishes other than the little sink in the bathroom.

Perfect for a weekend stay for two

This cottage was perfect for us and we loved the free bicycles provided which allowed us explore. Short walk to the beach and short bike ride to an awesome breakfast at the lighthouse cafe! Our host was super nice and communicative. We had a great time

Place is ok and the bikes are great! The biggest issue is that the drywall between units is so thin you hear everything from the other units.
