Fantastic beach cottage

The house had all the amenities to make your stay complete. The owner was also easy to reach if you needed anything. The only thing that I would suggest is better mattresses.

Great Place!

We have stayed here before. However, with the updates that Trudy did , it was even more special than the first time. This little blue cottage is an original ! Very nice and clean! Just a few steps from the beach and a short drive to everywhere and everything! The community is nice and quiet. But the cottage makes the most enjoyable experience. It is exactly what I consider a gem! Thank you Trudy for making everything nice.

About the host

Hosted by Trudy

Local owners take great pride in quickly replying to our guests' needs - yet we promise not to bother any guests unnecessarily during their stay!

Why they chose this property

We vacationed in this small (Tower Shores) community many years ago & totally fell in love with it's unique charm and GORGEOUS private beach. Over the past 13 years, we managed a summer rental here, and have consistently strived for our guests to fall in love with this area
(and our cottage) too! :)

What makes this property unique

There are currently very few 60's style single family homes within the Bethany area - especially one so close to a private beach! Enjoy having your own front & back yards here, lined with trees for relaxing privacy. Our growing list of returning guests say this cottage is charming, comfortable & clean. While the house is old, it is also very loved by it's local owners, and we constantly find ways to improve it's comfort, contents & charm.
