The location is fabulous – just a short walk to a nice, clean beach. The marsh views and back yard are wonderful, as described in the listing. The cottage itself was more challenging for our group size and family structure, which consists of 6 adults and 3 children including a toddler. The dining table had room for 6 people (not 8), so we couldn't all sit together for meals. Although the upstairs bedrooms accommodated 6 people plus the toddler in a folding crib, 2 people had to sleep downstairs. Sleeping options on first floor were a fold-out couch (twin size) in the living room and a futon in the sunroom. Neither of those two rooms have window curtains; thus, no privacy or protection from bright morning light. A final challenge for our particular group was that the doors, stairway and general indoor area were not possible to "baby proof." Overall, a great choice for a smaller group and those without young children.
