We're hooked!!

Liz and Lee, Your cottage is AMAZING … but, more than that, so is your hospitality. From the personal, handwritten welcome note and fresh eggs to the fun supplies (touchless trash can and polka-dot dishes!) to the signature sea-life decor, you ensure your guests with countless smiles. A close look at the home accessories gives a true appreciation of the artists’ skills. All that, PLUS front and back SCREENED porches!! This is probably the most charming, organized, well-stocked, clean, and interesting vacation rentals we’ve experienced. The historic Fisherman’s Cottage sits on a quiet street, within an easy walk to town. It was truly a haven after a busy day of doing the “tourist thing.” Future renters, be warned: You might not want to leave! -Tim and Anne K
