The yard was perfect for our pet. My sheets had a yellow stain on them, the tub is very slippery and would be nice to have a regular coffee maker. The setting was gorgeous.

A gem of a property

Pictures don’t do this properly justice. It is so clean and well equipped for a family stay. The beds are so comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need, there are beach towels and board games… The property is amazing with private access to the beach is so special. Exploring tide pools in the morning and swimming in the afternoon. This is a special place, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Family vacation

We travelled with three littles and a few adults. Beautiful property and cottage. House was well equipped. Beach access easy stairs and a lovely patio over the beach. Swimming at high tide was like an aquarium swim. Lots of beach life and adventures. Beds were comfortable. We would recommend to future guests.
