We had an amazing vacation at Linda's place! Not only is Dog Beach terrific (even if I didn't bring my dog, I'd hang out there and watch all the happy dogs playing on the beach!), but the town is very dog friendly. It has a really cool, fun vibe. Linda's cottages are by far one of the nicer places to stay. The 3 cottages are very clean, updated, and furnished smartly. Our one bedroom was the perfect size for the two of us plus our beloved dog. Just as important as the inside though was the outdoor space. I was so looking forward to relaxing outdoors in beautiful weather, and we did that every day. Although the patio is shared, each unit has their own space, so we utilized that for outdoor dining and just hanging out. Also each unit has their own grill, and Linda provides beach necessities like chairs and an umbrella. The garden is incredibly lush, it's almost got a Mediterranean feel to it. The location couldn't be beat - very close to the beach, the pier, and also Smiley Lagoon. Our dog loved that section of the beach the best because the water is calm and shallow. The only slight drawback to this rental is parking, as it can be challenging on the weekend. We always managed to find a spot though, so just didn't move the car much over the weekend. So much in town is walkable, anyway! Overall it was an incredible spot in OB!
