Perfect beach cottage! Loved this beach access - one block from the access itself - quick 2 minute walk down the sidewalk. Can run back to the cottage for lunch, check on your pooch, snag more snacks, etc. Access has a wooden ramp w/out steps and a "beach carpet" that extends a little ways over the dune. You could also just walk the sandy ramp which was mostly flat. The neighborhood was quiet and perfect for bike rides and morning walks. The side yard was great for letting our dog get a little exercise in. The house itself was spotless! The cleanest house we've ever stayed in! Little beach decorations in all the right places, comfy beds, cool retro kitchen appliances, front porch was screened and perfect for people watching, enjoyed the back deck,e tc etc etc. If we could add something to make this house an even better place to stay, we'd add a second bathroom, or a half bath at least. It was challenging for all 5 of us to use the same bathroom, but we made it work for the week. The communication was awesome as well and we appreciate everything that goes into getting a house ready for a family to have a super beach vacay! Would definitely rent again in the future!
