Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
We had THE BEST 4th of July vacation at The Cottage in Bellaire. The Cottage is adorable! Beds are VERY comfortable and house was super clean. Our hosts provided games, paddle boards, and beach towels. Super thoughtful! I was really pleased that they left plenty of dish soap and laundry soap. One less thing we needed to pack for a short trip! The home was 3 minutes from downtown Bellaire. Yummy ice cream and delicious dinner choices! 5 out 5 stars for our hosts! Great communication and extremely accommodating! Definitely coming back!
