Perfect house for our family and pups. The house was very clean and thoughtfully prepared for us. Ocean City was thriving during Thanksgiving week and a great place to enjoy family and do some pre holiday shopping. The house is set up so the front porch and yard are an extension of the living space with a great fenced in yard. We hope to go back next year!

Such a lovely little enchanting cottage set back in the heart of OC. Very good location for walking to shopping of every kind.Dunkin Donuts is right around the corner if you don’t feel like making coffee in the AM. Mallons Sticky Buns a few blocks up the road And shopping on Asbury a couple blocks up. Also if you love learning a new craft a block around the corner is Scrim Discovery a needlepoint Store with gorgeous colorful designs. The owner Sally was so kind and invited me to come for a free private lesson with one of her lovely stitchery teaches. She spent an hour and a half teaching me how to needlepoint. It was so enjoyable and relaxing and a great new hobby to practice on cold winter days.The cottage has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. Allison, the owner was very responsive and a pleasure to communicate with.

How could i possibly put into words how much we adored the cottage?! It was perfect, beautifully decorated, clean and just lovely inside and out!Our pup loved the yard and the home, we just adored the layout and accomodations. Also, talk about a convient location right off Bay Ave. Having a parking spot made a huge difference and we spent not one but two early nights in just to enjoy the cottage. The neighbors were friendly and helpful, the chairs on the porch were so comfortable, we spent hours on that porch. The boardwalk was a mere 4 minute drive and we parked on different streets each day to enjoy the boardwalk and beach at different spots as i was traveling with my elderly parents and it afforded them less walking.The beds were ao comfy and the rooms were spacious. The kitchen was so homey, functional and big. This cottage checks all the boxes. Were already planning an return trip and plan on staying at the cottage again. The owner was not just helpful and informative, she is a lovely person with a beautiful personality and giving heart. I cannot speak highly enough of Alison!It you want a gorgeous home all on one level with a secure fenced in yard, this place is for you!! Dont miss an opportunity to stay at this beautiful home owned by someone who clearly truly cares!!! 1000/10 stars!!

Alison is so kind hearted and generous . She made my family’s first time experience to Ocean City memorable as she opened up her home and shared some of her favorite spots in town with us! The property is very cute . It has a fenced in yard which makes it easier for pet owners to not have to worry and can just open up the front door and relax on the front porch while the kids and dogs play in the yard ! Upon arrival we had all of our instructions and codes so there was no need to hassle with the app and read all the specific instruction like most . Alison makes it easy and stress free ! We thank you for allowing us to rent your cute little cottage and we can’t wait to come back for more memories !

Lovely cottage beautifully decorated with the convenience of a front porch and fenced in yard. The location is excellent! Close proximity to the boardwalk which made it easy to come and go. We enjoyed the beach and the boardwalk daily and made a special trip down to Cape May for a dolphin and whale watch excursion which was only 45 minutes away. And, made a pit stop to Adventure Aquarium on the way home which was a lot of fun. Parking was a little challenging, but once you figure it out, it’s smooth sailing. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Getaway!

Alison's house is adorable!! She really puts a lot time and thought into her decor. I appreciated this because it created such a nice atmosphere vs. some rentals that are just bare bones. The front porch and front yard were my favorite; comfortable and clean furniture and the house is set back from the road so it's quiet and relaxing. The location was great-such a quick walk to Asbury Avenue which is where the local downtown shops and restaurants are. It was also nice to go for a run on the 9th street bridge in the mornings. Alison was also very responsive and informative through the whole process. I could go on and on about all of the wonderful things! I will definitely be coming back!

Cute Cottage in Ocean City

My husband, pup, and I spent a couple of relaxing days in this cottage at the Jersey Shore. The size was perfect for the three of us and the fenced yard was a bonus. The cottage was in walking distance to tons of shops, restaurants, and the boardwalk. The owner, Allison, was a pleasure to work with stores, and the boardwalk. Alison

Perfect for long weekend

We love Ocean City and typically stay in the South End. We wanted to have our pup stay with us this trip so this was a good choice. Owner is terrific-easy to reach and responsive. Location is on a rather busy street, set back from the street. House is tiny, well stocked with one small bathroom. Overall very comfortable for a short stay. We will bring bikes next trip!
