Great Location

We worked remote for a week. Peaceful area to get away. WiFi worked great for two people working remotely on laptops. Although our cellphone calls would drop often. Great place to stay but make sure you bring some paper towel and detergent if you’re planning on doing Landry.

Gorgeous quiet spot for family time

This spot was absolutely gorgeous and everything was exactly as listed, no suprises whatsoever other than it was even prettier in person. The views are incredible, the spot is cozy and quiet, the house is well-stocked for all of your needs while there. We prefer to keep contact with the property manager minimum, we're pretty private, and that was not an issue at all here - we actually didn't get any response to our detailed checkout text to them, which we would have liked, but there were no issues. We were there during peak leaf season and the neighborhood was just gorgeous and we enjoyed the nearby hiking trails just a couple minutes down the street. If you're looking for a quiet, cozy, getaway, this is the spot - we recommend it! Oh, and it was very clean and smelled great, no mustiness, etc, which are two things that matter a great deal to me.

Loved the Red Cottage

This is a lovely location. The cottage was spotless, well-appointed and vacationer friendly. Plenty of hooks, plugs and towels. Yes, the climb down to the beach is a challenge, but we all managed. There are also beautiful public beaches nearby. Sitting on the patio, in the sunroom or the living room, the views are spectacular. The fire pit area is a bonus, with wood and kindling ready to go. My whole family (ages 9 through 77) had a great time.
