We enjoyed our stay so much.
The cottage was perfectly appointed and we lacked for nothing.
Quiet yet close to some amenities.
Great location and our family hopes to return one day.
This property was the perfect location for my son and his family to unplug and relax. My three year old grandson LOVED his time on the beach and the whole family was so excited about their time, that they added another day! Thank you for making this special.
This home was perfect for my brother, his husband, and myself and my husband! The only downside was how busy the restaurants were from a wedding. The space felt safe and cozy.
Really enjoyed this cottage! Cute decor and vibe in a convenient neighborhood surrounded by shops. House included nearly everything in regards to kitchen supplies, appliances, games, and a bluetooth speaker. These were nice touches and beds were comfortable as well.
Only minor things were there was leftover long hair on the shower wall of one of the bathrooms and couch from the previous guest. Overall, the place was neat and would definitely stay here again!
Lovely community and the home was everything we expected and more. Many thanks

We stayed for the weekend but wished it was longer. Loved the decor and slept really well.
Romantic and quiet retreat. We wanted to stay all week. You can walk everywhere here. Bar and restaurant next door. Very friendly people at grocery store.
Dog friendly too.
Will be back soon!

Outstanding!
Beautiful home which provided all we could possible need & want! Thank you!
The cottage is perfectly furnished & very peaceful. We had a strong storm the first night but enjoyed the chilly sunshine the following day and all the amenities of the surrounding neighborhood too.
I stayed here with my puppy for my birthday weekend to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy some well deserved rest and relaxation. The amenities provided were beyond my expectations, definitely don't need to bring half your kitchen here!
I was not expecting to have close neighbors based on the images, however upon arrival noticed another house a mere few feet away. Mostly the other occupants were also respectful of sound and it didn't become an issue. However when the hot tub is in use it does have potential to get a little noisy, so just be aware of that.
Upon arrival to the cottage I was a little underwhelmed with the cleanliness. While this is a pet friendly unit and a large part of why we chose it, I did not expect to see long dark hairs on towels, linens or the couch. There was also paper and hair in the washer. The entry ways were a little gritty to bare feet as well. Luckily there was a vaccum and broom in the closet so I quickly vacuumed and swept and we were good to go. I also vaccumed and swept prior to departure to help the cleaning crew and to leave the space better than found. We appreciated the back deck to wash and wipe paws so we weren't bringing gunk inside and the front deck to have morning coffee on.
I also loved the decor of this house. I didn't personally use the dining table, games/dvds, the sitting chairs or the second bedroom but thought that the fluidity of the space was absolutely adorable. The bedrooms are small, but don't feel small.
All in all the cottage puts off a very welcoming and homey vibe, is just a few miles from the beach and is right next to a small green belt area. While it looks like there will be new housing on the next street, my pup loved going through walks in the brush in the morning. This unit will be going on our short list if we are ever in the area again.
Well decorated, comfortable and clean. Very friendly staff. Excellent food and extraordinary service at the Oyhut Bay Grill for both dinner/ live music and breakfast too.
We really enjoyed staying here. The reservation process and check in were simple and quick. Would love to go back and bring my pup. Perfect location to walk.
What a great place!!
The furniture arrangement, kitchen supplies, location and cleanliness were all perfect.
This home is very comfortable and the 4 of us had a GREAT time.
We’ll be back!

Our experience in the Sand Castle unit at Oyhut Bay vacation rentals was exactly right for our small family and two dogs. We loved it and would rent this sweet little cottage again.
This is such a beautiful and well put together home! It has everything you need! The cleanliness and organization was next level! We enjoyed our stay and will be back!
Our stay with you was amazing. Loved the little cabin.. excellent condition and very well stocked with everything and anything we might need. The location was peaceful and quiet and we had an awesome weekend. Thank you again. We will be back some day for sure.
The Sand Castle Cottage was the perfect retreat and first family get-a-way since all of this covid stuff has happened. It was quiet and we loved the location on the end. My little one is already asking when we are going back. Thank you to everyone on the team for this wonderful stay!
