I booked a last minute mini staycation for our most recent heat wave-something close to beaches with central air, a pool, and that was dog friendly. The cottages at East Island were exactly what we were looking for! Parking for one car was available directly in front of our cottage and the cottage we stayed in was clean, cool, and had all of the amenities we would want for the three days we were there. The pool was open 10:00am-8:00pm (very clean) and we had it mostly to ourselves! Newport Winery was within walking distance and the beautiful beaches of Middletown and Newport were only a short drive away. We would often wake up early to walk our dog at Second Beach, which is dog friendly from 5:00-7:45am (just park at Surfer's End and bring your leash). Looking forward to coming back again soon!
