My husband and I visited from DC for a long weekend and couldn't have asked for a more relaxing stay! The cottage is adorable and comfortable - the king bed was great (it's on the firm side, which we like), and the soaker tub is a bonus! There's no kitchenette, but the coffee station is fully stocked and has welcoming extras like a bottle of water and chocolates. We read other reviews and brought pre-made sandwiches, drinks and snacks, and along with a few runs for local seafood, did just fine. Guests are also allowed to use the fridge/freezer just off the beach area (also a nice bonus). Couple of notes: if you're tall, like my husband is, be mindful of the canopy bed crossbar. :-) Also, the layout of the property wasn't really clear to us until we saw it in person - the cottage is at the top of a sloping lot, off to the side of the main house. It's surrounded by trees and bushes that give it a secluded feel, even though it's not right on/at the water. That said, the beach is just a short walk downhill, past the house, across a lovely lawn. We took kayaks and paddled every day, and spent a couple of afternoons just reading down by the water. It was quiet enough to hear a band playing across the water. Mark was super-responsive and so very gracious! The cottage wasn't booked on our last day so he offered us a late checkout option, and was quick to respond to any questions we had. We totally recommend this property to anyone looking for a place to relax and unwind!
