This cottage worked perfectly for our stay. It was off the main road but yet secluded among the trees. Very comfortable and had all we needed. Would definitely recommend it and will most likely book again down the road.

Perfect cottage

The cottage was perfect for my husband and I with all the comforts of home. Marianne the host was amazing and quite insight on where to eat, hike and what beaches to go. Summerville is a year trip for us and as long as the cottage is open this is where we will stay!!

Great time! Great House! Great Host!

Even though we visited during hurricane Debby, the house was high and dry. Our Host kept us informed of the local weather issues and what roads were safe. We were able to have a great time and did not mind getting wet.
