Craftsman Cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Sapphire Shores/Indian Beach is a particularly lovely area and we would go back again. The Craftsman Cottage is just what it says…a cottage suitable for two. Very quaint.

Hurricane Helene

Unfortunately the hurricane wiped out our ability to enjoy the cottage. Evacuation, storm and utilities outage. No damage but they may not have power even yet
