I am from the East Coast and this is my second time renting this cottage. If you are looking for a romantic getaway with amazing views of the ocean you will not find a better rental! There are incredible views of the Bay and we saw Dolphins every day that we were there. There is access to the beach down below and most of the time we had the beach to ourselves. The drive into town is not bad at all but I would recommend bringing everything that you need because once you get there you will want to spend every minute that you can enjoying the place! There is a full kitchen that had everything that we needed and there were also plenty of bath towels/cloths and extra beach towels. There is also a propane grill outside. Nonie is an excellent host! Communication was perfect and there were absolutely no issues with check in. Nonie made sure that we had everything that we needed. I cannot wait to go back!!!!!
