It was great to have a place that allowed us to bring the pup along as we always hate when we have to leave them behind.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
Cute beach cottage that has everything you need to enjoy a stay at the ocean. Being pet-friendly was so appreciated. You can see the ocean waves rolling in and the dunes from the front window or by sitting on the large deck! The kitchen was well stocked with a nice coffee maker. Mike was quick to respond to any problems. The one downside was that the queen guest bed was really uncomfortable. It was soft and sagged in the middle.

House was perfect. Easy beach access, clean, comfortable and close to everything.
6 / 10Average·Apr 2025
overall we had a lovely trip. the cleaners did not clean prior to our. arrival. they showed up to clean 2 hours after our check in so the place was a little messy. lots of sand on the floors and bathrooms not clean but nothing egregious. the cleaners then showed up 1/2 hr before check out creating unneccessary pressure to our already busy morning as they were parked right next to us watching us try to pack up and load the car. it was uncomfortable. the place also just a bit run down. like the safety rails on the bunk bed are held on by zip ties which seems unsafe. also half the property lists to one side almost 3 inches lower on one side of the house. while its likely safe enough it does give off the concern that the house is going to fall down. at least half of it. the location is nice and despite a few hiccups overall a nice enough stay.
