The perfect home to rent for 4-6 people, and the location is a rocks throw from the ocean. All the amenities for a wonderful vacation. Very charming!

Hosts were very helpful, check in was a breeze. We enjoyed our stay very much. Beach was just steps away. Good Birding for Dad on the beach. Bodie lighthouse and Wright Memorial close by. Great location. Would stay here again. Arcade game was lots of fun. Cottage was stocked good with games and great books for a rainy day. Wish we could stay longer.

Anniversary getaway

We just loved this place. The house and property are so well kept and the property manager was awesome. Short walk to the beach where you can see dolphins while walking on the beach. Spent our evening on the back deck enjoying the stars and listening to the waves. And the location is far enough away but still close to town. We are planning to stay there for hopefully every Anniversary now.

Perfect location and great price

We can for the beach and we were not disappointed. Great location with easy beach access. We loved being able to see the ocean from the living room. Air conditioning was a plus. The house itself was a little old but in good condition and clean. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

This beach cottage was perfect! It is about 2 minutes from the beach and centrally located near stores, restaurants, and piers. It is equipped with everything you need. Bonus feature: an arcade game with all the old games. I would definitely rebook here. Communication with the host was excellent!

Absolutely charming property right by the beach

We loved our stay! It was exactly what we were looking for in a beach house. Clean and very well-kept. Comfortable furniture and beds. Annette and Greg were very responsive any time we had a question about the property. We were steps away from the beach (most of the time we didn’t even bother with sandals) and an easy drive to any number of great restaurants. And in the evenings we could open the windows and hear the surf.

The listing is accurate, the house is 50 ft to the beach trail/entrance. Our family members went back and forth from the beach to the house often because it is so close. We love the outdoor shower, the deck and easy beach access. The photos clearly show that it is an older style beach cottage, charming and filled with fun touches like a record player, games, cards, etc. The mattresses were comfortable. We had 4 people and plenty of space. The bunkbed room is best for one kid/teen or 2 younger children in my opinion. We greatly enjoyed our time there.
