I wanted to love this place. The location was perfect and the cottage was spotless and well appointed, with everything that my pup and I could have needed for our 2-day stay. Unfortunately, we weren't told that the cottage a few feet away on the same property was being renovated. The whole reason I chose this particular spot was because I was looking to get out of the city and experience peace and quiet and the sound of the ocean. Sadly I got none of those. From 7:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. all I heard was hammers, saws, and drills. Not to mention really loud conversations from the construction crew. Mind you, these men are just doing their jobs so I have absolutely no beef with them. It's just completely NOT what I was looking for on this beach getaway. The deck is gorgeous. Perfect for sitting outside and sipping coffee and contemplating life. Unfortunately I could not do any of that. Likewise, the yard that goes around the entire property would have been lovely for my dog to explore. Sadly, one of the gates had been taken off to get the construction equipment in, so I could not even let him off leash. It makes me sad to write this review because again, the cottage itself is lovely and the location is great. But what I was looking for was a peaceful relaxing time away from the city noise. And that isn't what i got. If I had been told about the construction I could have chosen to stay somewhere else, but since it wasn't disclosed I ended up feeling frustrated and misled.
