"Terrible. Ended up spending another $1,600 last minute to stay elsewhere. This is not an air bnb or anything similar. It’s is one child size bedroom in a rude old lady’s house. It is intentional false advertising. The “shared bathroom” clause is supposed to have you assume you will be sharing the place with the elderly woman that lives there and whatever guests she has in another room.

Cozy Cottage - River House - Kayaks - SUP - Relax & Recharge

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I truly enjoyed our long weekend at this rental. It was very clean, well equipped (fantastic range!), darling coastal decor, and comfortable. There were several kayaks and a SUP, though we just used the one tandem kayak. It was a very easy walk with the roller cart down the street to the dock. We also caught several fish in the cove, which was especially relaxing. Lots of fun family activities in the area, including manatee and sunset cruises. Great stay!"
