Marilyn is an excellent host with a wonderful place. The Beach Cottage was clean and welcoming, with every amenity and a perfect amount of space for 1-2 people. The location is great, a short walk from the beach and with easy access to downtown by way of the streetcar. Dining and entertainment around the neighborhood is also first-class. But the highlights were the hosts: Marilyn and Tyler were communicative, charming, enthusiastic, and welcoming. And their adorable and friendly dog Nanook is just the best. A great stay!
