Could not use the internet, error messages about the server. We were not working remote on this trip so that worked out. This network is operating on Wi-Fi channels in use by several other nearby networks.Restarting your wireless router may allow it to automatically choose the best channel to use, and may resolve this problem.

Overall the stay was good. Great location with access to everything! There were only two things that I feel need pointing out. There was unfinished laundry in the washer and dryer and the kitchen had a lot of ants.

Backyard has been made into a beautiful place to read, nap or just relax in the sunshine. Location can’t be beat. Beach across road. Quiet street and walking distance to restaurants including breakfast diner, seafood restaurants, pizza, and donuts and bagels. Fishing pier in walking distance too. Close to the historicaldowntown district. Park and walk over the bridge or ride the free shuttle (during peak seasons) over. Lighthouse and amphitheater all very close. Wonderful host. Quick to respond

Fantastic place to stay for a beach trip! This house was the perfect size for my family to all sleep comfortably and we loved having two full bathrooms. Everything was clean, communication was prompt and helpful, and the check-in process was seamless. We also could not have asked for a better location-such a close walk to the beach and multiple restaurants!

Quick beach trip

I have stayed at Buds Light house in the past, and come back because it is truly the nicest stay in St A. You are steps away from ice cream, and breakfast Diner, and the beach, and this house is one of the cleanest and nicest I have stayed in - and I have been to MANY! I have never needed anything while there, but Justina is always quick to respond to any communication. Thanks Justina, see you next time!

So clean and homey

Of the places I have stayed, this is one of my favorites, and I am a repeat customer. This cottage is well appointed through the kitchen, beautifully remodeled, and within walking distance of the beach and restaurants and most importantly, the best ice cream on the beach. It is very relaxing for me, and even when it is just myself, it is worth the extra cost to me for the cleanliness and peace.

Friends fishing weekend

Three of us got together for an offshore fishing trip. The house and location were great. Close to the marina and places to eat. And while we weren’t there for the beach it was right across the street (we talked about bringing our wives next time since the beach was so close). We hope to come back again next year and if we do we’ll stay at Justina’s if available.

Girls Weekend

The house is beautiful & location too. There was lots of sand under all the rugs. Mentioning this because of rules to remove shoes. We found spider webs & spiders. We assume the house hadn't had renters for awhile before us. Other than that we loved it & it's amenities.
