Location, location, location! We came to play some competitive beach volleyball with friends and this charming cottage is literally at the courts. We could easily watch the kids and volleyball from inside or outside on the patio. So very convenient to run back for supplies, nap time, or bathroom break. As others have mentioned the house is older/dated but well kept. The thing worth highlighting is that both pull out couches are of a firm base with memory foam type mattress, NOT the cheap springy pull outs you might think of and very back friendly! Our host Al was super responsive as well.
