We love staying at this adorable home. Clean and quaint. Nice and close to everything. Once we park we don’t need to use our car, just a quick walk. Lots of fun memories made here.

Amazing stay!

Perfect location! Perfect cottage! We loved our stay here. The cottage was very comfortable and so charming. We were close to the beach and had access to beach chairs, boogie boards, beach umbrella, sand toys and bikes. Parking was so easy. Check in and check out was a breeze. I can’t think of a better place to stay!

Great little house

This house was perfect for our little family of 4. The house is perfectly located to the beach and we were able to walk to all our favorite spots. The house had everything we needed and the backyard and garage were a great bonus. Would gladly stay here again!!

Buckeye Bungalow

We had a fantastic time at this sweet cottage. We loved having a cute sandy backyard for when our kids weren't at the beach. Close to the beach, shops, and restaurants.....we had a blast! This place had everything, so well stocked...loved it.
