Our cottage was really cute and very clean. Nelly is really accommodating (extra towels and life jackets for example). The catamaran and kayak were a lot of fun. Bring wood and make a fire by the beach. We will be back every year most likely.

Great place to stay. The owners are very nice and helpful. Beautiful beachfront location. Walking distance to groceries, liquor store, parks, fine dining and casual eats. The room was nice including a kitchen with all utensils. Tv and wifi was also included.

We've had a great time there. Our host (owner) was amazing and friendly. The cottage was clean and it has all you need; kitchen was equipped. You could park right in front of your cottage.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Cottage was very cute and thoroughly equipped with everything you need. Super clean and bed was wonderfully comfortable. Luxurious towels and plenty of hot water. The sandy beach is remarkable. What a view! The sunsets were fabulous. Nellie , the owner is wonderful! So accomodating and goes out of her way to make your stay a great one. I will make sure to come back again and recommend this jewel to all my friends
