Perfect little beachfront cottage right on the water ...a few steps across your own beach. We had a very relaxing, comfortable visit.

We had the absolute best time! The property is right on the beach and you just can’t beat the view from your porch. Our toddlers loved being able to go back and forth throughout the day and it had all the amenities we could have asked for, even double ply toilet paper! Ely was a wonderful host and we’re looking forward to staying again in the future!

The location was superb - the house was pretty well stocked - would just recommend some decent kitchen knives and a blanket for each room as it got pretty chilly. Overall a great rental property - would definitely rent it again!
