We absolutely loved our stay at Sharon’s Cottage! The house was beautiful, spotless, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect, and the host was incredibly easy to reach and always quick to respond to any questions or needs. The fireplace on the screened porch was perfection! We had such a great time and will definitely be back!

Beautifully updated home inside and out! No detail was left undone. Plenty of room to spread out on the front, back or screened in porch and even downstairs. Family dinners around the dinning room table and s'mores around the fire pit were some of our favorite memories. Easy walk to the beach, shops, restaurants, and farmers market. We have been coming to Union Pier for almost 20 summers and this was our families favorite cottage to rent by far.
