It features a large living/dining area with a full kitchen, washer/dryer, a covered patio to relax, wireless internet and smart televisions. There is also shared green space for the kids or your dogs.
When you walk through the door of this well-appointed property, you'll find an open-concept living/kitchen/dining area with plenty of room for your group. The living area has a large sectional couch and a large smart television to enjoy your favorite shows.
Off the living room is the master bedroom with a queen bed. The master also has a huge closet with all the storage you could imagine. If you have young children, this area is perfect for a crib or pac 'n' play. Beyond the closet you'll find a bathroom that will remind you of a spa with a soaking tub, dressing table, and frosted doors.
Past the living room is the dining area and kitchen. The fully-stocked kitchen features stainless appliances, granite counters, and plenty of storage.
Beyond the kitchen is a bonus sleeping area with a futon to accommodate children. Off the bonus area is another full bedroom with a queen bed and a smart television. These areas share a full bath with a walk-in shower. In the back of the unit is another bonus area. This one has a full size washer and dryer, and laundry sink, and also serves as a bunk room sleeping three guests.
Outside, you'll find a private covered patio, three reserved parking spaces and shared green space for your kids or dogs. The central location allows you to take a spin around town in a golf cart, spend the day fishing, or relax at the beach. Whatever your plan, the Coastal Lodge is the perfect place for your island getaway!
This property is DOG friendly. We welcome well trained dogs (no puppies) that are not labeled as "aggressive breeds" with a limit of 2 dogs with a total weight under 100 lbs. We charge a $100 per dog pet fee (covers entire stay) and ask that you pick up after them when they do their duties outside and kennel or crate them if they are left home alone. If you are bringing a dog, please message us the breed, age and weight of your dog so we can pre-approve them. Unreported dogs will result in a $200 fee, and may result in immediate eviction without reimbursement for the entire reservation.
If you have a larger group, consider renting other units on the property. We are pleased to offer a 1 BR/1 BA (Unit B) that sleeps 4, a 2 BR/1 BA (Unit A), and a 2 BR/ 1.5 BA house with a bonus room at the back of the property (Troy's Retreat). Please contact us for details or to rent multiple units!
The Coastal Lodge is a non-smoking property. No smoking or vaping of any kind is allowed in the buildings. Guests may smoke outside as long as smoke does not enter the building and guests clean up after themselves.
We hope to see you in Port A soon!

Port A Trip 2024
Since the house is one level, with no stairs, it was perfect for my hubby recovering from surgery plus his 88 year old Mom and our adult children. We wanted to be near Old Town and we were. Also rented two golf carts.

Great stay!
My nuclear and extended family had a great time staying in Port A! I wasn't 100% sure about the layout of the sleeping areas from the description in the listing, but there was plenty of space for all of us. (When you walk through the door, go straight through the dining and kitchen area and there is a set of double doors that opens to a room with a queen bed. A door to the left opens to a room with a king bed, and a door across from the double doors leads to the laundry area with the bunk bed. Whoever is sleeping in the queen bed has the potential of being disturbed by someone walking through the room. It's a little unconventional, but it worked for us.)
There were a few minor issues that did not affect the quality of our stay, and I notified the owners. All communication with the owners was prompt and professional.
When we drove into Port A, we called as instructed and were met at the house by Nanci to receive the keys and a quick overview of the property. Other rentals I've arranged through VRBO had a keypad on the door, but I liked the personal touch provided by this group!
Property is a short walk to the beach (less than 3/4 of a mile) or a quick drive.
Kitchen had basic cooking utensils that were in decent shape. The knives were decently sharp (I was surprised- I usually find them to be quite dull). Bring your own herbs and spices though. Also bring your own charcoal if you want to use the grill like we did.
Overall, my family and I had a great stay and wouldn't hesitate to stay again!

Great house, great experience
We loved the convenient location to the beach. The house is spacious and accommodated our group of 6 ladies that come to the beach every year. Our hosts were outstanding. They answered our questions and fixed any minor issues almost immediately. We are ready to book this house for our stay for 2023, and we highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a great Port A experience.

Nice Getaway
We really enjoyed our stay here. The house was spacious and comfortable. There were 7 adults in our group and we never felt cramped. We were close to the beach, local pizzeria, and other stores. Check in and out was quick and easy. We would definitely stay here again.
