Location is great, Convenient to restaurants and quick walk to the beach. If going to the beach multiple days look into a beach pass and save some money.If you have kids, bring a pole and net as they can entertain themselves off the docks right behind the house.Take quick showers as hot water is limited. Tv has all the channels. Don’t overpack as very limited closet space.We hope to come back.

Pictures don't do this property justice

We had a really great stay. This property is much cleaner and cuter than the pictures really indicate. Great little place in an amazing location if you're dining at the Mattunick Oyster Bar or spending time on the local beach.

Great location-super nice waterfront community

We really enjoyed our 4 night stay. The cottage was very clean and well stocked with all you could need. When you first walk in you can see the pride the owners take in providing a top notch rental in all aspects. Very short walk to beautiful east matunuck beach.

Nice cottage near the beach

Nicely updated cottage. Tight on storage, very little closet space so be prepared to live out of a suitcase. Walking distance to the beach, and access to the pond is great. Very satisfied with the overall value and we will ent this property again.
