Geat Place To Stay

This is a cute little place to stay. Just perfect for two people. It had a beachy feel, a nice wooden walkway to the beach, and close to John's Pass. It was very reasonably priced. I would definitely stay there again!

Rock on Lobster Cottage

The stay was great! I grew up not far from the cottage and loved the location and the facilities. Very clean and comforting. Awesome set up, very user friendly. Best parking available for residents on the beach. Highly recommend this cottage. We look forward to staying here again.

Rock Lobster cottage 2

We loved the location, just a short walk to the beach and many good restaurants and bars within walking distance. The weather didn't really cooperate while we were there so we spent more time in the cottage than we anticipated.

Great stay. Right by the Beach!

The place was clean, well maintained, and a 30 second walk from the beach. The staff was responsive to any question or concern we had during our stay. The unit was everything we wanted, and nothing that we didn't. For the price, I don't think we could have done better.

Nice Cozy Cottage

This cottage was small but very clean! The futon was extremely uncomfortable to sit on in the evening and the TV was a little difficult to figure out for elderly but very nice place.

Great Location! Cozy and clean! Great Price!

Recently stayed here in July for a weekend and absolutely loved it. Just out the front door is a private boardwalk straight to the beautiful treasure island beach. The bed was very comfortable and the wall mounted A/C kept the bedroom plenty cool for comfortable sleep. The small fridge has plenty of room for a weekend worth of meals. I would definitely recommend you check this place out!

Cute little condo or apt with direct beach access. Kitchenette with microwave was handy. It could use a bit of low profile walkway lighting.
