Overall clean and well kept house; owners was thoughtful Left cookies for us. The house is abit older. Lots of nice personal touches and kids toys and beach stuff to use. We didn’t use any because the weather was cold and we were only there for 1 short night. The washing machine and dryer was nice to have.

Appreciated that they left cookies and water for us in the cottage. Had everything we needed. Stocked with must haves for basic living. Loved the comfortable bed and ceiling fan was appreciated!
