About this property

Pet friendly cottage perfect for a couple or small family.

This property has been renovated and ideal for a couple or a small family. It has a queen bed(sheets are NOT provided), and pull out cot. The Lucky Buc adjoins the Buccaneer. There is a privacy fence separating the two, but a gate to open up if renting The Buccaneer with family or friends. We are located 0.1 mile from Zillie's, 0.3 mile from the Community Square on HWY 12 and 2.1 miles from the lifeguard beach.

We do NOT post on Craigslist, so if you see it there it is not us renting it. We only go through VRBO/Home Away.

We do not offer refunds for weather related cancellations, ferry issues or illness. We highly recommend that you purchase optional travel insurance. f you want to do early check in there is an additional $45 fee. It is extra added stress for our cleaners to have everything ready for those that get here on an early ferry. Normal check in time is 3:30 pm and check out time is 11:00. If you want to check out late it is a $100 fee.

Such a charming cottage. Ellen and Russ were so friendly and easy to work with. Our doggies were welcome. They enjoyed the freedom of the deck since it had a gate to the steps. We highly recommend this property.

Exceptionally clean, especially for a pet friendly place. Outdoor shower with hot water is perfect for getting the sand off you are your dog. Close to some very good restaurants, Dajito is great. Very quiet, we are already booking another stay.

Wonderful

Third stay in this property, fourth with this owner. Very happy with the stay. Only suggestion would be a section of palisade fence between the second door and the outdoor shower. Property is actually even more quiet now since the campground across the way became annual leases only.

A nice one bedroom beach type cottage. The interior was cute and beach themed. The a/c worked well, separate units for bedroom and living areas. The kitchen had everything needed. The exterior was a bit worn and faded. Having a golf cart available was a very nice touch. Excellent and prompt communication with hosts.
