Cute and Cozy

The stay was great! Easy to get too and easy access to things in the area. Very clean. Very cute inside. My only wish was for some pans to cook pancakes for the kids in other than that it was perfect.

Surfing

Rented the cottage to be close to the beach access for our daughter to surf. Unit was very clean and had everything we needed when we weren’t on the beach. Property manager immediately responded to one question I had upon arrival. Neighbors were friendly and you could tell everyone looked out for each other. Already making arrangements to return again.

Great Little Beach House

The house was clean and tidy when we first got there. The owners really did a good job with making it an open concept home. It had all the amenities we needed and was only a short throw from the beach. Highly recommend!

Cute place!

Very cute bungalow and we enjoyed our stay. Has everything you need, but I would have loved some blinds or curtains for privacy and also to keep some of the heat out. I would definitely stay here again!

Tiny Surfside house

It was small, but very comfortable for two people. We loved sitting on the deck in the mornings and evenings. Decor was well done. We loved the "cattle drive" picture on the wall.

Charming place, quiet and good for a writer to enjoy some solitude…

Exactly what I was looking for in a place to get some writing done and relax. What I was not expecting though, was just how beautifully decorated, as well as just how comfortable it was. I can’t begin to thank the owners enough for the opportunity to have a very low key, yet remarkable and memorable weekend.

Weekend getaway

We arrived 15 minutes before check in time and the property manager was flexible in letting us get in a bit early. She was very accommodating and even offered to bring extra coffee if we needed it. Very nice and cozy place. Highly recommend!

This beach house was so cute, clean & perfect for the 2 of us. Loved the decor & pocket door to bathroom. Great space saving idea. Deck was large enough & always had the seabreeze. Thx to you ladies we had a wonderful 5 days! Soon as we can arrange it, we will be back. Belinda & Kirk

It was OK

Pros: Right near the beach, within walking distance. Large balcony Newly remodeled home Cons: -Water was foul smelling and tasting -No privacy - - no curtains - - host lives next door so with no curtains makes you a little uncomfortable - - had a constant feeling we were being watched - - we put temporary paper blinds on the windows for a slight sense of privacy -Carpet was not installed properly so the tackboards poke your feet in the thresholds -A/C struggled to keep up in the heat of the summer even with all doors and windows kept closed -Bed was rather small, uncomfortable and cheap (basic metal frame that wobbled with every move) We have rented a number of places and this one was lower on the list. I would have hoped for the money spent, they could have done a better job with the renovations and accommodations. At least the host was friendly. To the owners: I would highly recommend a water filtration system for the house. A nice shower after a long day on the beach is always a plus, but we couldn't enjoy our showers at all...

Surfside trip

This property was nice! The mosquitos were very bad on the north side of the island toward the intercostal waterway. The dishes and pots and pans were not great.

My girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed getting away together for a quiet weekend at the beach. The property was perfect for what we needed and we were more than pleased. This is the perfect spot for a couple to enjoy some down time and some alone time!

Fabulous Find

This cottage was awesome! I loved pretty much everything about it. The only cons to the whole property were not enough working electrical outlets even though there were a ton in the cottage, no working porch light, and the curtains over the deck door were great for day time, but at night did not offer privacy. Maybe two sets of curtains would be best for this. But, overall, I would stay there again in a heartbeat. Plan to stay there next trip to Surfside!!!
