Best quiet place near beach

The owner was amazing to work with and communicate with. This gave us just enough space to spread out for the little bit of time we weren’t “seeing” California or on the beach. Master bedroom is spacious and kitchen is well equipped

Trip with Xena

Beautiful serene and peaceful setting. Easy access to the beach. Easy communication with the host. Loved all of the wildlife. Very comfortable and spacious.For us, the only challenge was the tub shower. A bar handle would be helpful

Wonderful beach cottage getaway!

What a beautiful home! When we walked in the door, everything looked right out of a magazine and it smelled so clean and fresh. The walls are full of the most beautiful paintings that I learned were painted by one of the owners! Everything was very comfortable and the place had everything we needed. It is so nice to not have to bring our own towels. They even provided shampoo, conditioner, and soap for the shower. We enjoyed playing darts outside in the gorgeous yard. Communication was excellent! I had to reach out with a couple questions and the owner replied quickly and was very friendly. From the porch we saw about ten wild turkeys one morning and 8 deer in a group another morning. The walk to the beach took us about 15 minutes, but we stopped to look at all the plants and trees along the way. The location is great, only about ten minutes from grocery stores, restaurants, and more. And they are dog friendly which is a must when we travel. I highly recommend you stay at this wonderful beach cottage!
