Cozy dog friendly cottage with all the amenities you need.Jamanda the host was responsive to any questions I had. We were there for a week and the breakfast box was a nice surprise. The little bunky cottage was a nice touch for added sleep space. Location is close to town, parks and beaches.

The Road in: Be careful going up the road to the cottages. It is full of potholes, and you need to drive about 10 mph for a distance. The road needs to be graded.Cottage: The cottage was clean and well-appointed. Everything you might need was there. The view is beautiful. The bed was very comfortable, and the pillows were really good. There were enough electrical outlets for modern demands. Bring a cube with you to power laptops, etc. Very pet-friendly. There were lots of good-sized towels, which were welcome. Games available. Great BBQ. Only two chairs and a tiny table in the kitchen. The freezer was iced up.The Beach: There really isn't a beach per se, so don't count on that - just a lot of big rocks down below. Issue: The two of us could not figure out the TV settings. It meant we had to start another account to get into Amazon TV, which we did not want to do. The TV controls did not work. This one would not let us in, no matter what we tried, even unplugging it, hoping it would reset itself. So, we were not able to watch anything in the evenings on Netflix/Disney. The issue is that the owners live two hours away, so they were not able to come and help. They said that the cleaning lady would drop by to reset the TV, but she did not show up. Be aware that no one is around to help you if you need it.

Mini holiday

The cottage was lovely and very well outfitted! The bunk room felt like a proper bedroom. We only found one of the two paths down to the beach and it was on the far end of the property from our location. Overall we were very happy with the cottage and would definitely book again.
