Cottage was great and bed especially comfortable! Close to beach, just be aware of dog rules on the beaches. Closest beach only allows dogs before 10 am and afer 6 pm. Lifeguard directed us to dog beach -- but our dog is a senior and it was a bit intense for him. Loved the local restaurants and shops on Newport Ave. Overall people were very chill and nice. A few folks (probably under chemical influence) were invasive, yelling, cursing, etc. Disheartening but I did not feel unsafe.
