This 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath cottage was fully restored in the fall of 2018 and is well maintained.

Well stocked kitchen, some board games and all linens provided with the exception of beach towels.

This cottage is super cute and 1 block from the harbor, 2 blocks from the grocery store and The Strawberry Cafe Bakery, less than a 10 minute walk to the lighthouse and 1/2 mile from the back beach.

Large master bedroom with private bathroom and private entrance on the main level.

2 bedrooms and a 1/2 bath upstairs. Another full bathroom on the main level. Washer and Dryer available.

Large front porch and back deck.. Fire pit in the back yard. Deer and turkey sightings are frequent. Great cottage for families.

1 block from the cottage is a grassy area on the harbor with Adirondack chairs for your use.

Absolutely NO smoking and NO pets. We are very sensitive to smoke and pet hair.
