Wow. We had the most wonderful weekend at this beautiful AirBnB. I have stayed in several AirBnB's before now, and this has to be one of the best. I definitely hope to return regularly.
The purpose of our stay was to celebrate my Golden Retriever's 10th birthday by staying somewhere close to the beach for the weekend. I wanted to stay somewhere within walking distance so that he could comfortably get to the beach, stay as long as he wanted, leave whenever needed, and come back if he caught a second wind. A big priority for me was that the beach was relatively quiet with responsible dog owners, because I didn't want him to be hassled at the beach. This place met that goal and more. The walk down to the beach took about 15 minutes and was very straightforward. The beach itself was beautiful. Sandy, flat, and lots of area to spread out so that there wasn't a mass exodus of dogs. Our old guy had the most wonderful time.
When we returned from the beach, Katcha let us know that they have an outdoor shower with heated water to rinse the dogs off which was so nice. The owners have dogs themselves and I was somewhat worried that their dogs would be loose on the property. When showering our dogs off we saw their dog inside, but he was never let out when we were out with our dogs, so we never had to worry about an impromptu meeting. You could tell the owners were very conscious of us.
The cottage itself was amazing. The views are absolutely incredible and the cottage has everything you need. Cozy fireplace, cable TV, functional kitchen, large comfortable bed, nice bathroom and shower. It was chilly when we were there and Katcha had the heat running when we arrived and an extra comforter waiting for us in the bedroom. She was also thoughtful enough to leave us out some dog towels. The whole experience was so relaxing and we hope to return regularly as a treat to both ourselves and our dogs. I cannot thank Katcha enough for her hospitality and making it such a great stay for us all.
