This property was just right for the two of us and our dog. She loved chasing lizards in the fenced in back yard! (she was never able to catch one.) The cottage is old but the kitchen and bathroom have been updated and the floors have been lovingly restored. The property was very clean when we arrived and the two dedicated parking spots were perfect for when we had family visit. The location was great - a short walk to the beach and restaurants. We enjoyed spending time on the front porch and in the back yard.
