House was adorable and quaint! Comfy King bed with full bath and screened in porch on 1st floor. Stairs up to living room, small kitchen and gorgeous bed swing and high top table. The view was imaculate! Stocked with heaters that we could put through out if needed. All I would recommend is maybe a couple of extra blankets :) We will be back!

About Time

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great! Only issue is the rental agency wants you to check in late, 4pm, and check out early, 10am, and is fairly inflexible. So, if your flying, be prepared to kill time with a long lunch on either side of your trip.
Response from VrboOwner on 26 Feb, 2026
Hello, we are sorry we could not accommodate an early check in or check out. Fall is a popular time for beachfront cottages and we can not always accommodate the check in requests. We are moving to a new system in Winter 2026 that will offer guests early and late check outs when they are available, automated, and in advance. We appreciate the feedback and hope to welcome you again to Seaside.

Weekend Get Away

We came for a weekend away after a hectic beginning of the year. This was the perfect location! Walk out to the beach, walk into town, and a quick drive to any other area along 30A. The cottage was perfect for us, easy check in and communication with hosts, easy check out. The perfect deck was amazing for getting breakfast to go and enjoying out there. Same for watching sunsets. This was the best!!

Great location and beautiful weather. The property needs some attention. Ice maker was not working even after 3 service calls. Dishwasher needed a re-set. TVs need to be updated. Window air conditioner is duck taped. Ceiling in den needs repair. To charge the rates that you do for the property, some updates and repairs need to take place.

Best Vacation!

This was the most wonderful vacation we've ever taken. Being right on the water and so close to beach access, we could really relax and just go with the flow without having to plan exactly what we would need for a day on the beach. We watched the sun set directly over the ocean from the porch swing each night, and saw dolphins in the morning while drinking our coffee! Truly the best. Hoping we get to stay here again sometime!
