Delightful little cottage

How I loved this small place under the trees near Middle Beach. I had absolutely everything I needed to be comfortable, to cook, to watch some old movies. My little dog didn't really want to leave. Well, me neither.

Review from Missouri travele.

Loved the inside of the cottage. Everything worked and and was clean. Kitchen fully stocked with what we needed. Loved we could bring our small dog. Outside was a little green and moldly - alot of leaves, but it was still winter. Didn't bother us. Quiet neighborhood, close to beach and stores. Perfect. Thank you.
