Perfectly comfortable and relaxing!

Host was extremely quick and helpful. Home was adorable and comfortable. Hopefully, the house will always be available on our future visits. We loved watching dolphins all day on the deck.

Lovely cottage

The cove cottage was very nice with great views of the water. It’s within walking distance to restaurants and a nice park. We were only able to stay a couple days but we enjoyed it.

The views, we’re the best part of our stay, and we were located just around the corner from restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping!! We had all of the amenities you would need for your stay, even though we went out for dinner each night.

Perfect Oceanfront Stay!

This property had one of the best views I've ever seen! We watched the dolphins every day from our balcony and visited the beach, which was only steps away! The community was unbelievable and everyone was so nice and welcoming! The communication with the property manager was spot on and very accommodating! If you love the beach and the ocean this property is perfect for you!

Nothing to complain about very comfortable. Parking at the cottage can be tricky but manageable. We would definitely stay there again. Bring your binoculars we so wish we had.
