This was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway with the pups. It was a short walk to the beach and the dogs were allowed to go during certain times. The property was exactly as described and close to lots of local spots. Would highly recommend!

Great location, just a very short walk to the beach! We could walk to CrabDaddies, one of our favorite restaurants. The house was very clean. We sat on the balcony and watched the fireworks! I would recommend this vacation home to stay in!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Great location and pet friendly. The reason for a 4 staar rather than 5 was there was a lot of maintenance work going on outside during our stay which made it unpleasant to sit on the porch. Not the fault of the owner. I know it is important to keep property maintained. Just did make the porches unusable during the day.

Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed Stones Throw Cottage’s great location and pet-friendly accommodations.

My wife and I wanted a place that was both dog-friendly and a short walk to the beach. This place nailed it on both fronts and then some! The condo was easy to access, the hosts gave detailed instructions on check-in and check-out, and the unit was spacious and relaxing. We are already planning on booking here again for our next trip to SSI!
