Nice Beach Bungalow

Small but cute. Screened in porch is absolutely wonderful. It is not beachfront, there is a three story house blocking your view. There is an unprotected captain’s watch in the backyard with a limited view of the ocean. The outdoor shower is very nice when returning from the beach, but it is still a nice little walk to the beach.

Charming cottage

We enjoyed our beach getaway in this little cottage but there are things to be aware of. If you’re looking for upscale, this is not your place. Although the main bedroom/bathroom and living area are spacious, the house lacks modern updates. The furniture is all outdated and not super comfortable to lounge on and all the mattresses MUST be replaced. The main BR king bed mattress has dips from excessive wear causing pretty bad backaches by week’s end. We rotated/flipped it during our stay, to no better result. The upstairs mattresses are also worn. The location is an easy 2 minute bike ride to the Goulds Inlet beach access which we enjoyed a lot. The access at the house is a 10-minute hike thru the dunes and around a lagoon and is not conducive to hauling beach gear across. The A/C worked well for us and the temps were comfortable. Four stars for cleanliness because of age of construction but we saw no glaring offenses. We would return with assurances of new mattresses throughout.

Spring break getaway

Such a cute beach cottage - perfect for a family of 4! Enjoyed the sounds of the ocean from the screened in porch and the view from the deck! The short 5 min walk over the dunes made it easy to get to the beach!

Nothing good to say about the property

The failure on my part was not paying enough attention to negative reviews. In my defense I was in a rush to find a place that would allow a larger dog. Also, suspiciously many of the positive reviews appear to be duplicates, but perhaps are fed in from questionnaire responses externally from direct rentals from management company's site. This place is extremely outdated, and tiny. It is nestled in the midst of very nice and what appears to be well maintained properties. The owners of this one take the cheap route to maintain the place. Examples: lamps in the main bedroom didn't work - not the bulbs, the lamps themselves did not turn on due to bad switches. Plateware and utensils were ragged and some were actually dirty - as in not cleaned from previous use. All furniture was ragged, stains on cloth seating, generally everything somewhat dirty. The mini split air conditioner did not work in the bedroom, which I found previously reported as "faulty" in an earlier review but did not work at all for us. As a result bedroom was very hot and had to rely on fans to try to pull cooler air from living room. Lots of insects inside the unit. Property management was responsive about the AC problem and tried to be helpful, they tried sending for AC repair but could not be completed in the time we would be there, so we decided to check out early and management offered a partial refund - I have not yet received it but it's only been 1 day.

Great little beach spot

I feel like the bio should mention how long the walk through the dunes is and that there are no board walks. We ended up buying a wagon to trudge out chairs and cooler. Place was clean and cozy otherwise!

Cold in the winter

Although this is a cute place and super convenient to the beach, it lacks heat in the winter with air conditioning only. We stayed there on a cold weekend and used the fireplace as our source for warmth. I would rent again in the summer only.

Cottage was quite lovely and close to everything. Property managers were very, very easy to deal with and went above and beyond! They even credited me my pet fee after we decided to leave our dog at home. I hope to return again and again. Would highly recommend to everyone.

Lovely time for a quick family getaway!

My husband, son (11), dog (13 spaniel) and myself had the pleasure of staying at this property for Fall Break. LOCATION is AMAZING !!!! It's right at the public beach access but try during the day vs night time unless there is a full moon. The walk was frustrating at first but quickly became something I looked forward to doing. The house was exactly what we needed and nothing more. The big deck was awesome but we got eaten alive by the red mites. The deck needs to be re-done soon but is such an asset to the property. If you are seeking a quaint, quiet and relaxing vacation this is a perfect spot.

The first impression was how clean this cottage; smelled clean, looked clean. All of the necessities were available. While it only took about 5 minutes, the walk to the beach might be challenging for some due to the dunes. We would definitely rent again.

Cute Cottage Near the Beach

We enjoyed our stay at the cozy cottage on 12th Street and loved the quiet neighborhood. The home had everything we needed. Despite prior reviews of the AC not cooling enough, we stayed comfortable during the heatwave by utilizing the AC and ceiling fans in the bedroom and loft. We enjoyed beautiful views of the sunrise over the ocean from the sun deck. The beach was just a short walk away through the dunes and protected grass area. We would stay here again.
