Verified traveler

The cottage was adorable and had nice amenities. I am usually disappointed with the cleanliness of rentals, such as things not being wiped clean when they don’t seem dirty. I washed the silverware and wiped out the compartments. I did have to buy toilet paper and replaced the paper towels but some places don’t provide them.The host was responsive to a question very quickly and we had a great time.

Locations was perfect. Nice walk to town center very quiet street. Having the beach access so close was great. The fact that the host had everything you needed to enjoy a day at the beach was amazing!!! Comfort of the bed was lacking. However it wouldn’t stop me from booking again.

Spring break

I was very impressed with our stay! The owner Sherman was very responsive from start to finish. The house was very clean,and I was amazed at the extras he provided. My teens enjoyed the corn hole boards and all the other extra activities he provided. I enjoyed the kitchen and grill. The location was absolutely perfect we could walk across the street to the beach or to the pier. We will be back for our next vacation. Thanks Sherman for making our spring break a fun and memorable one!
