We had a fantastic visit! The beach was even closer than we expected--a perfect distance, and the neighborhood was great. The cottage is extremely charming and we felt so relaxed while there. The back deck was an unexpected plus and we ate all our meals there. We had good weather, so the enclosed back area was just right. The beds and other furniture were very comfortable and the kitchen fun to cook in. It really is the quintessential beach cottage--not fancy or slick, but very comfortable and charming.
