A Cottage with a View is a remarkable rare gem of a home that exudes comfort and the lovely quirky character and charm of a well-loved family getaway. Located directly on the sound, we spent the majority of our stay relaxing on the dock or the covered porch watching a variety of birds and fish. The views of the water from the living room and bedroom are exceptional as well. The home was easy to get to, exceptionally clean, and the bed and furniture were quite comfortable. The bathrooms are small but accessible, and the location is simply unbeatable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property to anyone!

My family and I enjoyed the stay. It felt very homely. Fishing was phenomenal, lots of small fish for the kids and good shark fishing at night. Close to town and just a short drive to the beach access.

A wonderful respite. So Quiet. So Relaxing. Some may want more modern accommodations -but I enjoyed the sense of history and the quaintness of the cottage and the views are beautiful!I did nothing but sit on that porch for two days

Great family homeplace. Nice quiet neighborhood. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need for preparing large family sized meals. Lovely porches on front and back of house.Amazing dock. We spent a lot of time out there fishing with the children and seeing the ICW boat traffic. Great location for relaxing and watching the sun rise and set. Even on the hottest days there was a cool breeze coming off the water.Our host provided us with lots of wonderful information regarding the house and the surrounding area in advance. He knows the area well! Everything you need or want to know is included.We had 2 minivans and a truck w/boat trailer, and we still had plenty of room to park.This was a big plus for us!

No doubt an older property, but it has been maintained and kept clean. There are a few sag spots in the floor, but nothing troubling. It is very charming and the kitchen has everything you need. Beautifully kept yard and nice pier! Nice swing in yard! Have I mentioned CLEAN? Simple to rent and they provide so much info! Very nice people! Peaceful!
