Castaway! DB3--2 Bedroom/1 Bath Standard Cottage, Walk to the Beach, Dogs OK!

Welcome to the iconic Double Barr Cottages! Double Barr has been a favorite of Port A visitors for generations and is perfect for a quick beach getaway, a fishing trip, or family fun. Located just a couple of blocks from the beach in the "golf cart zone", you can walk, bike, or take a cart to the beach, fishing, or the many shops, restaurants, and other attractions downtown. The property has ample parking, outdoor dining areas, gas BBQ grills, and a laundry for your convenience.

Cottage 3 (Castaway) is a 2 bedroom/1 bath cottage with a full kitchenette and a dining area.
The first bedroom has a queen bed and the second bedroom has a queen bed and a set of bunks. The bathroom features a walk-in shower. Smart televisions and wireless internet are included.

This beachy cabin has a kitchen equipped with everything you need, including pots, pans, dishes and utensils. The kitchen includes a refrigerator/freezer, gas stove, microwave, toaster, a coffee station, and all of the kitchen basics. While we supply pots, pans, dishes and utensils, we do not supply any reusable basics such a oil, spices, or condiments for safety concerns. Towels for use in the house only, linens, and basic soaps are also provided.

There is parking for one vehicle next to the cottage. There is overflow parking available for oversize vehicles, boat trailers, or extra vehicles. Please inquire about availability of additional parking.

The cottage has window air-conditioning units and gas heat. Guests can use the outdoor picnic areas and gas BBQ grills. The guest laundry with 4 sets of washer/dryers is available for an additional fee.

Double Barr Cottages is dog-friendly subject to weight and breed limitations. We welcome well-behaved, adult dogs and ask that you clean up after them outside and kennel them (provided by you) if left alone in the cabin. There is a pet cleaning fee of $50 per pet per stay. If you plan on bringing a dog, please let us know the weight and breed so we can pre-approve their stay with you.

Want to stay longer? Ask about our weekly and monthly discounts from October through February!

Thanks, and we look forward to seeing you soon!

We enjoyed the cute little cottage. We didn't spend a lot of time there but was perfect for somewhere to sleep and get cleaned up.
