Spring break getaway

Such a cute beach cottage - perfect for a family of 4! Enjoyed the sounds of the ocean from the screened in porch and the view from the deck! The short 5 min walk over the dunes made it easy to get to the beach!

Nice Beach Bungalow

Small but cute. Screened in porch is absolutely wonderful. It is not beachfront, there is a three story house blocking your view. There is an unprotected captain’s watch in the backyard with a limited view of the ocean. The outdoor shower is very nice when returning from the beach, but it is still a nice little walk to the beach.

Cold in the winter

Although this is a cute place and super convenient to the beach, it lacks heat in the winter with air conditioning only. We stayed there on a cold weekend and used the fireplace as our source for warmth. I would rent again in the summer only.

Great little beach spot

I feel like the bio should mention how long the walk through the dunes is and that there are no board walks. We ended up buying a wagon to trudge out chairs and cooler. Place was clean and cozy otherwise!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love staying here because of location (easy beach access) and it's dog friendly. Appreciate the rustic vibes of property, but possibly time for some simple upgrades such as cleaner bed linens, carpets, kitchen appliances (specifically coffee maker). I also noticed some mold in the bathroom.

Lovely time for a quick family getaway!

My husband, son (11), dog (13 spaniel) and myself had the pleasure of staying at this property for Fall Break. LOCATION is AMAZING !!!! It's right at the public beach access but try during the day vs night time unless there is a full moon. The walk was frustrating at first but quickly became something I looked forward to doing. The house was exactly what we needed and nothing more. The big deck was awesome but we got eaten alive by the red mites. The deck needs to be re-done soon but is such an asset to the property. If you are seeking a quaint, quiet and relaxing vacation this is a perfect spot.

Great Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Home was very clean and in a quiet location in East Beach. The exposed brick is a neat look. Steps away from the beach walkover, and maybe a 5 minute walk in total from the door of the house through the dunes to get to the beach. Lots of dishes, cooking utensils and pots/pans. Downstairs was always nice and cool, but the upstairs loft tended to be warmer than downstairs (there is an A/C unit up there that we did not adjust during our stay) We had a wonderful time and we will definitely stay here again.
