Very nice and clean. Great location. Would definitely recommend. Only thing is it’s a little more than a short walk to the beach, but not a deal breaker. Will definitely stay again.

Very clean and fit our needs for this trip. AC and all appliances worked well. Convenient location and even provided a couple of beach chairs for use. The large, shaded deck was very nice.A bit dated and could use some weather stripping around the front door and degreaser on the kitchen cabinets.

Clean and cozy cottage

No frills, pet and family friendly cottage in a lovely neighborhood near the beach. Very clean and comfortable with a covered porch that was perfect for AM coffee and rainy afternoons.

Very nice! Didn't realize there was another rental property in the backyard so we did get a little scare when people pulled up and started walking under the porch to the backyard. Short walk to the beach. Would stay here again.

Home away from home

It’s not just a house, it’s a home. My daughter stayed while attending summer classes at the sea lab and my husband and I also enjoyed the house. Felt very safe and felt like home.

peaceful getaway

Enjoyed our stay on Ohara Drive. The host was easy to contact and always responded quickly. Kitchen was well equipped. Bed was comfortable. Plenty of linens in bathroom. My only complaint was the stairs but maybe that is because I am 77!! Will probably rent it again next year. It was peaceful and quiet.

Perfect Weekend escape

The place is a little dated. Everything was well maintained and clean. The location is secluded and quiet. A little walk or drive to the public beach access. Overall, the rental surpassed my expectation.
