House was clean and well-supplied, located in a quiet neighborhood just down the street from the marina and beach. Perfect for a quick weekend getaway!
Relaxing visit. Walk to beach, fish, collect sea glass, great seafood at Red Eye Crab, convenient to luncheonette and bait shop. Really enjoyed our stay!
It was so convenient having everything available at the house. This meant that we had to pack so much less. The house was clean and very comfortable. One great thing was we were able to bring our dog along with us. Ken was always available and a really nice guy.
Nice beach cottage near the beach and marina. Went to visit for a family weekend. Everything was just a advertised and the cold drinks in the fridge was a nice touch since it was so hot out. The owner were available when the lock code wouldn't work, it was resolved immediately. Definitely will stay again.
Fortescue is my family's hometown, so finding a great place to stay at an affordable price meant a lot to me and my sister. This wonderful house is clean and cheerful with lots of light. The hosts provided all kinds of extras, like spices, cold water in the fridge, eggs, plastic bags, cleaning products, coffee, and tea. In the back of the house there is a wonderfully shaded sitting area with comfortable chairs and even a fire pit, which would be great for a stay during the cooler months. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful little house and hope to return soon.
This was our 2nd stay and it did not disappoint. Cute, comfortable, beautiful sunrises and quiet community. Our pup loved the beach that was just a short walk away. The cottage itself is so quaint and well equipped with whatever you need.
My girlfriend, dog and I were just looking for a quiet place where we could take the dog for walks on the beach and have a bonfire at night and this place is perfect for that type of stay.
It was the perfect size for me and the dogs. We were coming back to see family and just needed a clean, local spot to spend nights. This was perfect and I'll definitely book again when visiting in the future.
Our family of 4 stayed here in June 2024 amd we had a great time. The home is small, but cozy and cute. We had everything that we needed and Ken was a great host. Would definitely stay here again for future visits!
We enjoyed this little house in a little fishing village! It's a cute and well-stocked property, very comfortable for 2 people and 2 dogs. While we didn't get around to utilizing the back yard much, there was a nice fire pit area! There is a little beach down at one end of town, however during our time there (end of June) there were SO many horseflies! This definitely isn't a knock against the house and property, but just a note about the area and time of year. We couldn't spend anytime outside at the beach without getting swarmed and eaten up, so we drove to Wildwood Beach instead. But Fortescue is a cute town with a nice marina area, you can charter a fishing boat and get a cool experience there!
