Great location that was a short drive to the beach and into the downtown area. House was very clean and comfortable. The basement play area with the pool table is a great addition and provided great entertainment after a day of adventures. Highly recommended!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Angelfish Cottage. Great layout, well appointed kitchen, rec room and bedroom downstairs were a bonus. Easy walk or drive to beach/downtown and access to the trail is awesome for runners/ walkers/bikers. Loved the private outdoor space.

Perfect stay

We are so happy we found this place! It's just about a mile from downtown so it is nice and quiet and private with a fenced in yard but it's a really quick trip to walk, bike, or drive downtown for food, shopping, coffee, etc.! Really close to some beautiful nature and beaches, but not so close that you're in the thick of everything all the time! Super clean, well maintained, and the host was a joy to work with!

Everything we needed for a great stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Angelfish Cottage! The house had everything we could possibly need for a comfortable stay (we were there for a week). The host thought of everything. Although a little far (for us) to walk into town, everything was a quick drive away. The neighborhood was quiet, and we enjoyed the outside spaces. We hope to return soon!

Many extras included

We stayed at Angelfish for a long weekend with our daughter, SIL, and infant granddaugher. We enjoyed using the firepit and grill. The beach chairs and umbrella were a great addition to our beach day! And my husband loved being able to vacuum out the car before we left (specific vacuum for cars in the shed). The downtown farmers market was great, and we bought items to grill at Bob's meat market. Thanks for a great visit!

Cute little house - very clean

My family of 5 enjoyed our stay at this house. It was very clean and decorated very cute! I'm actually surprised at how nice some of the stuff was for a rental! My teens loved the pool table and had fun with the record player - even if they didn't share the same taste in music LOL! We had a couple of fires and the backyard, while small, was nice and private! My husband and I walked each morning while waiting for our teens to wake up and enjoyed walking down to the beach and exploring the area. I would stay here again.

What makes this property unique

Very close to the beach, kids corner and town. Yet nestled in a quiet neighborhood with lots of privacy in our fenced back yard
