Thank you for the review and for noting the convenient location and cozy atmosphere. I'm sorry you experienced intermittent Wi‑Fi/TV connectivity and a clogged shower drain after use. We've had a technician review the internet and TV setup to improve streaming reliability, and a plumber has cleared and inspected the drain so this shouldn't recur. We appreciate the feedback — it helps us improve. Thank you for staying with us.

Pet friendly and for the most part updated. Locks gave us issues and the shower curtain was moldy and filthy. The property was I available the first night and that caused us issues.
Driftwood was in a perfect location for what we wanted to do, it was very clean, and comfortable, and communication with the host was excellent. Our biggest frustration was that the WiFi was very inconsistent, especially while trying to watch tv. Also, the only hooks or place to hang clothes were the 3 small hooks in the kitchen.

Thank you for your review. I'm happy the location worked well for your plans and that you found the home clean and comfortable. I'm sorry the WiFi was inconsistent and interrupted your streaming — we will speak with the provider about what can be done to improve the connectivity. Thank you, too, for the note about the hooks. Thank very much for the helpful feedback.
Smaller than expected but nice. Some good f the furniture was broken (chest of drawers) on arrival. Access to the beach was fabulous and worth booking in and of itself. I will note that if you plan to cook meals this isn’t the ideal spot. The kitchen was poorly stocked in terms of basic cooking essentials (no salt, pepper, olive oil) and dishes. The fridge is tiny so I’m glad we didn’t do a grocery shop on our way in. Overall it was perfect for what we needed this weekend and would be nice for maximum of three people (even though it does technically sleep 6).

Thank you for highlighting the beach access — I'm happy that was a key part of your stay. I'm sorry the broken chest of drawers and the kitchen supply took away from an otherwise great stay. The maintenance team is replacing the drawer pull and we will be working with the owner to improve the kitchen inventory. Thank you very much for the feedback.
This was a cute little place. I wish I noticed there was no washer / dryer however. There is a laundromat down the road but we didn’t have much time for that. The place is a quick walk / access to the beach and loved the flooring for sand cakes pups. I did purchase a broom to keep up on the sand. The little vacuum wasn’t cutting it. Bedrooms were a decent size and beds cozy. Decor was giving the beach cottage vibes. Close to all amenities as well.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm happy the coastal decor, cozy beds, and the easy beach walk all contributed to a pleasant stay. I will notify the housekeeping team that the vacuum needs serviced or replaced, thank you so much for purchasing a new broom in the meantime. That was beyond kind!
Really enjoyed the stay, the cabin was sweet. The kitchen could be better stocked, made cooking a little difficult. Extra blankets would be nice too. Would definitely return.

The property was nice and close to the beach with easy access. Very pet friendly with wood floors and was nice and clean. It would be nice to have enough coffee and/or tea for a day or two. Nice place! I'd say again!

Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the location and beach access. That is true, we don't have a washer/dryer and state that on the listing so guests can pack accordingly. We appreciated hosting you and hope to welcome you back soon!
None of the outlets in one of bedrooms worked at all so no tv, lamp or charging ports. Was very inconvenient

Thank you for staying with us and for the review. I’m sorry your stay didn’t earn five stars.
I apologize the outlets in one bedroom weren’t working — that should not have happened and I understand how inconvenient that was. We checked on this the day you checked out and determined it was a tripped GFCI outlet causing the issues. We got that reset and everything is working as it should be.
Please message us through the Vrbo app with any additional details you’d like to share. Thank you again for the feedback.
The location in Rockaway was perfect! Easily traveled up and down the coast on day trips as well as enjoyed Rockaway.
Cute little house- updated and clean. Beds were comfy, bathroom clean, kitchen tiny but enough. Great and fun place to stay!!

Our family had a great time. This simple small cottage was perfect for our weekend getaway with our family. It is just a short walk to get to the beach, which was amazing. The weather that weekend was great so it made it all the better.

We found the place to be just what we were expecting from the photos! A cute little cottage near the ocean with easy access to the beach. It was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed for a great stay. When there was a minor issue with the door access keypad during our stay, the owner responded within minutes to ensure it was resolved as quickly as possible. I would definitely stay here again.

Nice place and convenient location. Very close to the beach which was really nice! The fridge was a little small but it worked for us since we were only
There for 1 night. Called the number listed in confirmation email because our key code didn’t work and they were very responsive and got us in quickly.

The location is perfect with that small town feel and soft sandy beach..our vrbo was quant and pleasing but the floors were dirty when we got there, made our socks brown, needs to be mopped and the couch was incredibly hard and uncomfortable which was disappointing after a lot of hiking.

We loved how close it was to the beach! House was cute and small. Everything was clean and nice. Quiet area. Only things that were inconvenient was:-Being close to the beach sand gets tracked in and there was no broom to sweep (only a dustpan) and a vacuum that didn’t work to suck up the sand. -There is an oven but not a single pan of any type to use in it! We wanted to make nachos but no pans (minus one that was like 3x3 inches - much too small to use). -No cheese shredder-With how small the bedrooms and bathroom are, with hardly any floor space it would be really nice to have some hooks on the walls or doors to hang stuff on.

Great Location, great space, horrible neighboring residents
We loved our stay at Rockaway. The bungalow was very cute and right next to the best part of the beach. I expected it to have more items in the kitchen (oil, sugar, salt, can opener, etc.). PLEASE BE AWARE neighboring residents in the street that leads to the beach have aggressive dogs and are not mindful of keeping their gate closed. We/our dog was attacked while walking to the beach. The gate was open and the owners were not in their yard. When they did come out they were aggressive, hostile, and rude and did not take any steps to check on us our dogs. They were unapologetic and do not seem to like having vacation rentals in their neighborhood. Keep this in mind if you are bringing a dog with you.

Hi Rob! We are glad you enjoyed your stay, but we are sorry you encountered some issues with the neighbors. Unfortunately, there is not much we can do, but we will pass on your comments to our local property team so they are aware. The kitchen should have been stocked with salt and pepper and apologize our housekeeping team failed to restock these supplies. We value your booking and hope we have the opportunity to host you again.
The property was very clean and the size was perfect for our family of four. We were celebrating my birthday and it was just perfect. Two concerns to alert the owners. The fire alarm in the bedroom to the left, as you walk to the bathroom, went off in the middle of the night. It was not the beep of low battery so you may want to check it. Also, the cabinet with the broom has an exposed screw which could hurt someone. The cabinet door is off the track and the closet is difficult to use. These were minor concerns to us but I'm sure the owner wants to address these. We had a great time. Thank you.
What a great spot this cabin is. We had 4 adults and one 6-year-old for a long weekend. It was great. The home is sweet and small. It would be great for multiple families if you can book the other cabins on the property. The location is perfect. Just steps to a beautiful, not crowded beach. We had everything we needed for the house and the check-in process was very easy. We had a wonderful weekend and would definitely stay again.
A couple things to note, the fridge is super small. It’s more of a dorm room fridge than a mini fridge, but we made it work. Plenty of good food in the area. The coffee pot provided is a small, 4 cup maker which really equates to two cups once poured so we ended ho having to make lots of pots. Just something to know about if you have more than one coffee drinker in the house. The beds were super comfy, but the couch was not.
Overall, we loved this spot, this town, and this beach. I would definitely recommend staying here. We will return and will probably try to get the whole property next summer.
