Welcome to the iconic Double Barr Cottages! Double Barr has been a favorite of Port A visitors for generations and is perfect for a quick beach getaway, a fishing trip, or family fun. Located just a couple of blocks from the beach in the "golf cart zone", you can walk, bike, or take a cart to the beach, fishing, or the many shops, restaurants, and other attractions downtown. The property has ample parking, outdoor dining areas, gas BBQ grills, and a laundry for your convenience.

Cottage 3 (Castaway) is a 1 bedroom/1 bath cottage with a full kitchen, a separate living room, and a dining area. The bedroom has a queen bed and a set of bunks. Please note that the bunks are suitable for children or small adults and the weight limit is 150 pounds. Castaway now has a separate living area with a television and a futon for relaxing. The bathroom features a walk-in shower. A smart television and wireless internet are included.

This beachy cabin has a kitchen equipped with everything you need, including pots, pans, dishes and utensils. The kitchen includes a refrigerator/freezer, gas stove, microwave, toaster, a coffee station, and all of the kitchen basics. While we supply pots, pans, dishes and utensils, we do not supply any reusable basics such a oil, spices, or condiments for safety concerns.

The cottage has window air-conditioning units and gas heat. Guests can use the outdoor picnic areas and gas BBQ grills. The guest laundry with 2 sets of washer/dryers is available for an additional fee.

Double Barr Cottages is dog-friendly subject to weight and breed limitations. We welcome well-behaved, adult dogs and ask that you clean up after them outside and kennel them (provided by you) if left alone in the cabin. There is a pet cleaning fee of $50 per pet per stay. If you plan on bringing a dog, please let us know the weight and breed so we can pre-approve their stay with you.

We enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean. Communication with the staff was fast. Air conditioner in every room. Best of all you park right in front of the cottage so getting stuff in and out of the truck was a breeze. We would definitely stay there again.

Convenient and cute

This place is within walking distance of everything we needed. It’s not fancy, but we didn’t go to Port A to hang out in a cabin all day. Easy walk to the beach, several restaurants, and a convenience store. And the communication with the host was great! We’d definitely stay here again!
