The cottage, sweet tea, was very clean and smelled very fresh when I checked in. The only little problem I had was not understanding the push button combination lock, but that was probably more me than the lock itself! Kevin was easy to get a hold of and explained the whole process of locking the door without locking myself out! We enjoyed ourselves, the cottage and the beach. Our only complaint would be the state of the outdoor shower. It is not in a very good place and Fords no privacy.

We really loved our stay here. Sweet Tea had everything we needed. It is spacious, clean, has a very nice roomy and bright kitchen, and several outdoor spaces to enjoy, both sunny and screened in. The location is perfect and it truly is even cuter in person. We could have stayed a month and been happy! Maybe someday. We would absolutely return!

A Real Beach House

We loved our stay at Sweet Tea! It’s a nostalgic home that’s updated and comfy. The porch is a perfect spot to visit in the evenings while listening to the waves crashing. With only a short distance to the beach access, we made it to the beach in no time to set up and enjoy the beach! We’ve already started planning another trip.

Sweet Stay at Sweet Tea

The home had a wonderful location and it felt very homey. The place was very clean and had a well stocked kitchen. The outdoor shower was very convenient to rinse off after a day at the beach. The proximity to the beach was incredible. It was a very enjoyable stay and the ability to bring our dog was a big bonus!
