Worth a try, has quirks

I thought the checkin process was good. We got in late, i had gotten a text message with instructions on my room passcose, office passcode, parking instructions anda few other helpfull things a good 6 hours before checkin, which was helpfull. The room looked nice, spacious with a huge shower. There was a privacy tint on the window in the shower which was taped on and falling off. Ki da rough looking, especially since it was privacy for a window in the shower. There were a few cobwebs on a lamp next to the bed. Not a big deal to me but not sure how it was missed by cleaners. The bed was neat. It was made of wood in a classic kinda way, not dimensional lumber. But the bed was pretty squeaky. The shower was nice and big. Probably the best part of the room honestly. All in all it was a nice room. Very close to shops, restaurants, the beach. Would definetly rent again.

A bit pricey

The cottage is walking distance to many restaurants, shops and beach. Compared to other places I’ve stayed this one is a bit pricey for what you receive.

Wonderful stay, nice cozy room .. love that they served breakfast .. felt like staying at home away from home. Only complaints are TV was hard to use and having issues watching anything, and could use blind on window in door facing bed. Glad to have stayed. Joyce the housekeeper was so sweet

The property was in the best location for my needs. I just wish check-in was earlier than 3pm. I have a 4 hr drive so like to leave my house relatively early. Check out is 11am. You would think the room could be ready sooner than it is.

My husband and I stayed 2 nights here and had a wonderful stay! Free on street parking and the location is within a half mile walk to the beach and many restaurants and shops. Breakfast was great, the managers Joyce and Kat were friendly and knowledgeable. Bikes available for use and we rode 2 miles to the county park at the end of the island. We can't wait to return!

Staff was kind breakfasts was decent. The roon was clean but had no curtain with the blinds and the patio arrangement orientation towards the door uncovered was awkward.
