Summer fun in the Sun

We had a great time staying in your lovely cottage. We loved this cozy and clean place with a pet friendly and fun neighborhood! Great opportunities, bike riding, bird watching at the Audubon Center and ocean kayaking. Also, some helpful hints: clean the outdoor grill and provide instructions on how to turn the gas on and off. Please provide a kitchen cutting board for chomping all those summer veggies!Thank you!

The cottage was exactly what we wante… close to the water, close to The Tyde restaurant where we were able to walk to the wedding. The cottage was clean, the central air was perfect on these hot-humid summer days, appliances were new, nice little porch out back. Everything worked out great for out trip!

Cozy little beach cottage.

Unfortunately it rained almost the whole time, but the beds were comfortable and the TV was easy to use. My only criticism is the couch was kind of lumpy and worn out. Other than that, I enjoyed the space very much.

The back porch water view is the star

This is a cute, very small place in a nice location, with a peaceful view of the water from the back stoop (with 2 chairs!) You can hear the water ripple on the shore. Also a very quick walk to a nice little commercial district, complete with an ice cream shop. Was very easy to communicate with the host, which I really appreciated!

Wonderful!!!

I booked this place for my mother and her friend to visit family up north and this place was true perfection for them! They raved about how clean, updated, easy to park, great amenities and location it was! The owner was so responsive out of the gate. My mom loced it so mych she asked me ahead to check dates around the holidays when we head up again but the house was booked. We'll hopefully book again another time, we head up to see family about 4 or 5 times a year. Worth the booking! Thank you!!!!

Endless opportunities for activity

Practically on the beach, and centrally located between a wildlife refuge and a state park, with Long Island and NYC less than 2 hours away. Local pizza at La Catrina was epic. Joggers and dog walkers aplently. The only thing that would have made this stay more perfect would have been to bring our pet rabbit along. Oh wait, we did! It was an excellent stay!

Peace and Quiet

The cottage is immaculate, well stocked with everything you could possibly need! Very quiet neighborhood..in walking distance of several cute restaurants. Beaches are not the Jersey Shore..as expected.. but able to set up a beach chair and relax. Many shells and rocks.. Donna, the host, was so kind and quick to answer any questions.

Clean, comfortable Getaway

This wonderful property was exactly as advertised. It was clean and comfortable - stocked with all of the essentials, plus more. We didn’t get to spend a lot of time exploring the area as we were in town for Yale Commencement activities, but it sure was nice to have a “home” to come back to each day. I have always stayed at hotels previously, and I booked this place way in advance, so I was a little nervous about the entire process. The host, Donna, always responded immediately when I had any questions, which was very reassuring to me!
