Our host went above and beyond to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible! We had an amazing day at a nearby beach with plenty of clean up areas when we returned to the rental. We would book again if we returned to the area :)
We stayed here from Thursday until Sunday. Very nice house. Had everything we needed for the stay. Host is excellent. Responded quickly and very nice. I would stay here again.
Owner is quick to respond. Quick to get things taken care of. Only downside to the place is only 1 tv and no wifi. Made it hard for the days we stayed in to enjoy the house. Beds were comfortable. Shower pressure in the house is awesome! Overall we enjoyed our time there.
We very much enjoyed our stay at the house. From the outside the house appeared to be small. But, once we were inside the house we were surprised to see that the house was layed out very well. There was more room than we thought. Any issues that arose were addressed by the Hostess very quickly. Could not have asked for more.
If you are looking for a home away from home, a place to sleep at the end of the day, this is the house. You have all the conveniences of home that allow you to be flexible with your active schedule. The neighborhood is quiet and you are able to walk to public locations that will allow you to view a pretty sunrise or sunset. The only down was the lack of WiFi BUT it's lovely to disconnect. Our family of four was happy with our stay!
This little cottage house was perfect for our weekend fishing trip. The owner (Amy) stayed in contact with us until we left and was always available if we needed her. The cottage just felt like a home away from home as soon as we walked in. The couches, the beds, the shower water pressure...everything was great!
Quite, peaceful little neighborhood. Fishing access literally right down the street. Gas station right around the corner. It's a little bit of a drive to get to a grocery store and restaurants but that was not an issue for us. Just wanted others who may see this are aware but I can tell you...next trip, I will be contacting Amy again! We absolutely enjoyed our stay!
We fished most of the time we were there but having a place to shower, eat dinner and sleep was what we were looking for and this place met all of our needs and wants! If you are just looking for a place to stay so you can go enjoy the sand and surf or to go get on the water and fish....this place is it!!
Also, at the boat dock, there's a strip where you can fish off the bank, a pier...everyone is so nice. Again, this place just feels like a home away from home!!
Second bathroom was in a shed along with the washer and dryer. I wasnt able to get the washer to work, didn't try thr dryer. One bed was a piece of plywood rigged up on a bed fram that it didn't fit properly and a mattress on it. Very low to the floor and couldn't sit on the edges due to lact of support. Shower in the bathroom in the house kept causing water to puddle on the floor outside of tub causing us to use more towels to clean it up. Everytime we flushed the toilet or run water down a drain it would gurgle in all the other drains. Ice maker on fridge didn't work. A/C worked well in the house. Was very clean.
Host was nice. We enjoyed our stay. Only thing negative I'd say is that I wasn't aware of the second bathroom not being in the home, but in the shed. The guys didn't seem to care. It was a nice get away to unplug and enjoy the beach for the weekend. We did visit the pier down the road, but unfortunately our schedule didn't allow us to see the gorgeous sunrise or sunset on the water.
