In general the cottage is uncomfortable , dirty in ways that probably cant be cleaned and looks like it was decorated from a dumpster . The furniture may not be dumpster supplied but it is without question the cheapest must uncomfortable junk available. The cottage has a musty odor that undoubtably is the result of the age and construction with nocks and cranny's that never dry out and the fact there are rugs and carpet to try and cover it up. It is WAY over priced. On the upside, it looks good from a distance.

Perfect booking location!
This was just the right size cottage and the location couldn’t have been better! We had a fairly easy drive up from the Logan International Airport, getting to downtown Newburyport was a breeze, and the little Plum Island store & restaurants were wonderful. The area around Sunny Side was quiet & peaceful. We would book it again!

The couch was uncomfortable and it's springs had sprung in one place. The place smelled like dog and there was pet hair on the sofa. I could not comfortably sit on the sofa. The bed was great! There was no microwave and I needed one. I could not take a bath in the tub because of no stopper for the drain. The AC units when set on DRY just couldn't keep up keeping the place moderately cool unless it was night time in the bedroom with the door closed. I feel I overpaid for this rental and will not be staying here again.

Sunnyside- Yes!
We were happy to stay in the clean, simple, private cottage in a quiet neighborhood of Plum Island. The cottage was comfortable and had everything we needed. The driveway access was tight, but manageable. We drove the few miles to the Parker National Wildlife Refuge and would love to have spent more hours there looking at birds and beaches.

Cute and good location
Good location, cute, clean. Nice yard and seating area. Small but comfortable for the three of us. Needs a light in the TV and in the dining area. Would be nice to have one more seat in TV area- but its small so could be hard to do- would have to be creative.
Overall a great stay.
