The Ruff Seas was originally built as a fishermanâs cottage after hurricane Hazel. The house is on the woodland side of the island and a quick 7 minute walk to beach. This lot has an extra relaxed feel, as a neighboring lot is undeveloped. The cottage sits back from the street. Behind a picket fence is the porch and it is truly wonderful with floor to ceiling screening and unobstructed views of the flora and fauna. coming in off the porch you enter a very comfortable and open living area that flows into a huge dining table and kitchen beyond. There are so many extras..... A Carport to bring the groceries in when it rains or to put new wax on your surfboard. Outdoor shower to rinse off you and the seashells. Gas grill to prepare that fresh caught flounder. Please come enjoy the pleasures of quiet relaxed island living!
We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay at The Ruff Seas! Craig is an excellent host! We had everything we needed for our home away from home. We canât wait to come back again real soon.
Adorable beach cottage! Perfect size for us, near everything we needed. Nice touches of toiletries and kitchen supplies were much appreciated. Outdoor shower was a godsend after being at the beach for the day. Quiet neighbors and peaceful setting were very relaxing. Would recommend! Perfect walking distance to town music and festival venue for the farmers market and Friday night summer music schedule.
We loved this spot! We had our 8 year old and our baby who turned 1 while we were there. The house was so cute and stocked up with a kitchen that felt like our own, super fun games, an assortment of books, puzzles and even a yoga mat. We loved the front porch and sat out there every morning to drink coffee while the kids played. The outdoor shower was great and they had tons of beach stuff- chairs, toys, cart, etc. We also were able to walk to the beach with both kids and our beach cart everyday - not a bad walk at all.
We fully enjoyed our time at the house. The house was completely cleaned and fully equipped for everything you need. The outside shower was a convenient when coming back from the beach. The house is walking distance to the beach. It was a great time at the house
This property has all the amenities. Great coffee maker, beds were super comfortable, lovely layout. An inviting porch. Outside Shower after the beach is the best. We will be back. So happy with our stay.
We enjoyed our stay at Tranquil Harbor so much. It had everything we needed! Clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. Comfy beds, soft sheets and towels and even shampoo and conditioner! I will be back! Thank you for a wonderful experience. Mary
The cottage was adorable and felt like home. A lot of thought was put into the decorating and all the extras included. Craig even let us know the house was ready for check in earlier than expected. The house is nestled in the woods on a quiet street. The large screened in porch was the perfect place to spend our mornings and evenings. We hope to visit again soon.
This property feels like home. Everything is clean, of quality, and functional. The kitchen is well-equipped and easy to navigate. The beds great, the screened porch delightful, the location great access to beach and pickleball.Canât say enough about this great spot!
We absolutely loved our stay! The home was the perfect size for our family of 4 (2 kids under 4). It really had everything we could ask for and more! Every little kitchen utensil, nontoxic cleaning products, thoughtful touches, beach gear, the most amazing screened-in porch, and wonderful access to the beach, grocery stores, and restaurants.The outdoor shower was perfect for after beach rinsing, and the cooler backpack was clutch! We cannot wait to come back!
Craig was great - let us check in an hour early due to weather and responded immediately to messages. The house was just as described. It was clean and had everything you could possibly need - including stuff for the beach (chairs, cabana, cooler, wagon, boogie boards, sand toys, etc.). My only complaint is that the house had a very strong mold/musty smell to it. So bad that as I sit here at my gate to fly home, all my items and my kids items literally reek like this mold smell. I understand the house is in a beach location but Iâve lived and visited here before and have never experienced this. The walls were bowing out with what was clearly a water/humidity problem and in some cases it looked like they just painted over it. I was hesitant to post this review but as I smelled my items, I thought others should be aware. Other than the smell, everything really was wonderful and I thank Craig for the stay.
My frequents and family enjoyed our stay at Craigs house! He was super responsive when we had any questions. The houses amenities were great and it was in perfect walking distance to ice cream, playgrounds and restaurants! Will definitely be staying again!
The house was perfect for what we were looking for! Relaxing, quiet, close enough to the beach. The place was thoughtfully filled with anything you might need while staying.
Very homey. I felt as if i was in my own home. The cleanliness, amenities, location was amazing. The property was well maintained and had everything you need.
We srived just before the huricqin made landfall and had to spend a few days more in the house then planed but this house had everything you could think of needing stocked, games/books, cooking items all amazing.
