The cottage is DARLING! It was perfect for our family of 5. Three littles and two parents. We prepared meals here and had everything we needed in the kitchen. The towels were ample and furnishings comfortable. The front patio is a dream. We distance to the beach was incredible.
OB is a quirky hippie little beach town. Many great eating options within walking distance. A cute grocery store just a few blocks away. The fresh produce at the farmers market on Wednesday looked amazing. We felt safe the whole time.
The airplane noise is definitely something to consider. It never turned into background noise for us. It did seem to ebb and flow throughout the day but if you’re looking for peace AND quiet, you’re just going to get peace here.
