This place was fantastic; it's in a perfect location, removed from the hustle and bustle of the city. I loved how close it was to the town center, making it easy to explore everything. The people I met were incredibly friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with easy access to local attractions. It truly made my trip enjoyable!

Awesome modern cottage

This cottage is all new and has everything you need to enjoy this beautiful spot on the great marsh. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, bird watching, water play and serenity. The cottage itself is spacious and open, beautiful kitchen, clean, comfortable furniture. Justin, the host, is easy to work with and so very helpful. We rented this cottage for 2 nights as extra room for visiting family while we rented the adjacent cottage that holds 5. Worked great going back and forth and sharing the spaces. Enjoyed the brand new sunken fire pit, paddle boarding, swimming and kayaking off the dock and beach time at Crane Beach not far away. The cottage is on a quiet, secluded spot which feels very safe but is also a convenient drive to restaurants, shopping and more. We've come here twice and there is still more I haven't gotten to do yet, can't wait to come back and keep enjoying this special place!
