big mistake
not enough room here. will list a few faults. reserved cottage for one month and only stayed two weeks. needed so much that I didn't complain at the time because I didn't want anyone coming in and out. Mattresses were like sleeping in a hole. Filthy dirty filters on air conditioners. Terrible mold on shower curtain. Dirty shag rugs. Closet doors just leaning on side wall. Kitchen table leg just balancing and fell on my lap. Rose thorns so overgrown on handicap ramp so that I couldn't use my walker. constant traffic just 6 feet from living room window to campground next door. bad smell in cottage. kitchen cluttered with beach chairs and accessories which should have been kept in the shed where we had to carry our trash. floors need washing. did no good to complain to VRBO. talked to many people about being somewhat reimbursed after spending thousands. they gave me $225 back. I'd like VRBO to go and check out this cottage. We are two elderly women that saved for this months vacation and it was wasted. After staying there for 13 days, we couldn't take it anymore.. This is only a partial list.

We are not usually not complainers but sleep is important and the beds here were not comfortable. Pot holders or oven mitts would have been useful for oven items as would have been instructions about recycling, check out procedures and what to do with used linens.

Great location
The house was in a great location, but a bit small. It was advertised as sleeps 6 but someone had to sleep on the floor.

All was great except…
We loved the deck the most and all day sun. Everything else was fine except the sheets on the bed NOT under the window were terribly scratchy and the bed not comfortable so was not for a good sleep the first night . We took the sheets off for the next night. Would be nice to have Kleenex and a few plastic small plastic lunch bags etc. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay very much.

Cozy Cottage Stay
This was a great cottage for my husband and I to enjoy a get away. We were able to bring our small dog too. We enjoyed walks to the beach, shops, and restaurants, as all were close by.

Short Beach Vacation
We stayed here as a family of four for two nights, and loved it! The place is clean and cozy. The walk into the downtown is about 6 minutes, and I actually really liked it. It was nice to have a walk after dinner in town!
