Girls’ Weekend 2023
We had a blast. The place is so cute, quaint and quirky. Lots of little nuances to get used to but easy to do. It was so spacious and roomy with a lot of places to hang out. The crows nest at night was incredible. We even got to see a satellite launch AND a fireworks show. Awesome!

No Surprises
The property was what we expected based on the listing and the property manager was responsive when we needed parking passes that weren’t found inside the home.

Beautiful home!
We had a wonderful stay at Emil Cottage! The home was very clean with nice furnishings. The kitchen was adequately stocked for preparing meals. The beds were comfortable for the most part. There is a 150 lb weight limit for the top bunk beds and this should be stated in the listing to help insure adequate bed space. We loved the beach, the community and the pools!! One of the AC units went out on our last day in the home. We phoned the management as soon as we became aware, 6 pm. They assured me someone would call me or show up at the house. I had to call them back at 9 pm since I hadn’t heard from anyone. They told me the repairman wouldn’t be there until the next day, after our check out. We were trying to rest before a 12 hour drive and the bedroom was 82 degrees!

Wonderful house
10 of us stayed here the for a week including family from Georgia and New Jersey. The house was perfect and absolutely beautiful. I can't say enough about how charming this house is. Absolutely loved the jukebox. The kitchen was the best stocked we have ever experienced. Highly recommend. BTW if you are renting a golf cart, get gas rather than electric. There is nowhere to charge. Took a few weeks to get that answer from Vacasa. Just want to save others the trouble.

Just perfect
The house was amazing, a little bonus is the bar table on the rooftop patio which provides unobstructed views of the ocean. Easily accommodates 3 families of 4 since each bedroom has its own full bath.
