Loved this Beach Cottage
My family and I stayed at this property and it did not disappoint. It was closer to the beach than we had expected and easy walk to several restaurants. It was warm and cozy with several amenities. It felt like we were at home and we loved it!

GOOD STAY
Great place, backyard perfect for children, love outdoor shower, really like not having multi floor steps to climb. Just a few hundred yards from ocean, right on public access, not a bad walk.

Best beach stay ever!!
This was the best little cottage ever!! It was clean, close to everything, a short walk to the beach, and so cozy! It’s a quiet area with low light so, we thoroughly enjoyed the fire pit. The beds were comfy and clean. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal. There are spare toys and games to use while there. It truly was my favorite so far! We can not wait to return.

Refreshing & Comfy
Felt like a home away from home. Easy 3 block walk to breathtaking views of a none crowded area of Atlantic Beach. Beds slept great. Convenient walks for delicious takeout meals. Keith responded quickly to any questions. Really nice that an outside shower & water hose are provided to clean off beach items. Look forward to returning!

Wonderful Week!
This was a very nice cottage. It was equipped with all we needed to have a wonderful stay. Everything was clean and tidy. The living room furniture was very soft and comfortable. The beds were comfortable as well. We loved the outside shower and having a clothesline for our swimsuits and towels was extra nice. Quick and convenient walk to the beach was great! We also were able to walk to restaurants and ride our bikes through the neighboring streets. We had a memorable week with our family and will definitely come back!

Perfect Getaway!
This house was perfect for our stay. We decided on this trip very last minute and were so happy to find this place. My best friend and I took four 13yr old girls to the beach for the weekend for my daughter's birthday. The front bedroom that sleeps four was the perfect teenage hangout "den." The outdoor shower added a perfect extra shower for 6 girls! We brought stuff to make s'mores but didn't end up doing so because of wind, but the firpit was perfect! The location was great! A quick, easy walk to the beach access. We would love to go back again! Thank you!
