Reviewer Comments:
Great house, with a few minor needs that probably are part of summer wear and tear. Rugs need a cleaning and walls can use some magic eraser and minor dry wall repair. The washer dryer unit works fine but seems to be unbalanced and really squeaky and wobbly when it’s running. Location is amazing!

Reviewer Comments:
Great space in an incredible location right outside the main area. I hate to let others know about the cozy and comfortable Secret Garden home because it might not be available the next time I’m ready to return. Loved everything about this home. Peaceful,, comfortable, beautifully decorated and just right for my adult daughters and me on our long weekend getaway.

The Secret Garden was beautiful. It's actually been upgraded a little from the photos. We enjoyed our stay in Seaside. This cottage is in the perfect location. We enjoyed riding bikes everywhere or simply walking. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinner in the evenings. Even though the cottage is close to all things, it's very quiet and peaceful in the evenings.

The cottage was immaculately clean with charming decor designed for the ultimate in vacay relaxation. Just steps from the most glorious beach ever - reflecting Gods glory - AND just steps from the welcoming village and shops/eateries of Seaside. We can't say enough great things about Homeowner's Collection management AND the owner of this property. They were so helpful down to the smallest request and detail! We are hooked and will be back FOR SURE!!!
