You can tell the hosts take very good care of the property as everything was well maintained. The cottage was spotless. It had everything you could think of. The communication with the host was very timely. The pool was perfect. We will definitely visit again.

Quaint cottage by the beach
Very nice vacation spot for a couple. Short walk to the beach. Port A beaches aren’t the best but this rental also had a small pool which is nice for after dinner relaxation.
The downside is that the pool area is completely visible to the rental property next door and above us. We visited off season so it wasn’t an issue.

Cottage in the Dunes
Great little place; just right for two people and a small dog. Anne is a wonderful hostess! The cottage has soooo many amenities I didn't expect. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with utensils, pots and pans, and everything you need to prepare meals. The pool was clean, the lounge chairs are comfortable, and there were even pool toys! My only quibble is that there is no place on the property for your pet to relieve themself. They do have another property up the street with a fenced lawn that is very nice, but I wish I had known this in advance. And yes, you can walk to the beach but it is quite a hike. However, it only takes two minutes by car and a parking permit is just $12 for the entire year so that was fine. If you are looking for something cozy and cute you will love this place.

Great cottage
The weather did not work out in our favor; however, the accommodations were great!The cottage is cute, plenty of room for a family of 4. The pool was perfect. There are a lot of stairs on the property, so if you have difficulty with mobility, this is not the place for you. The property manager is very communicative and welcoming. Highly recommend this property.

Great Stay for Baby Moon
This property was perfect for our baby moon. An easy walk to the beach, but still on a relatively quiet street. The private pool was a huge plus. We loved that our dogs were able to join! We’re definitely going to try to stay here again.

Weekend getaway
The house is clean, cosy & well provisioned with kitchen appliances & linen/bathroom supplies. The balcony is closed in so dogs can be let out but there is no grassy area on the property so frequent walks are needed. The beach is a 10 minute walk away & leashed dogs are allowed there. The owner has another property very nearby with a lovely fenced in grassy front yard & graciously allowed us full access which was appreciated. Do note that car parking is on the street & there are about 2 flights of steps from the street up to the property. Communication with the owner at all times was very simple & she was very responsive. All up, it was a very peaceful & relaxing stay & I would recommend this property.
