Cozy East Beach Cottage, Steps to Beach, Large Screened Porch & Pet Friendly!

Very nice house. Great location

Area was central to all places we were interested in seeing. Neighborhood was very nostalgic of a small community… exactly what we wanted.

Great location! Cool layout. Quiet neighborhood.

House a nice size for a couple and our dogs. Great location.

Small but cute. Screened in porch is absolutely wonderful. It is not beachfront, there is a three story house blocking your view. There is an unprotected captain’s watch in the backyard with a limited view of the ocean. The outdoor shower is very nice when returning from the beach, but it is still a nice little walk to the beach.

This cottage is perfect for any couple or small family! Can’t get much closer to the beach access.

We enjoyed our beach getaway in this little cottage but there are things to be aware of. If you’re looking for upscale, this is not your place. Although the main bedroom/bathroom and living area are spacious, the house lacks modern updates. The furniture is all outdated and not super comfortable to lounge on and all the mattresses MUST be replaced. The main BR king bed mattress has dips from excessive wear causing pretty bad backaches by week’s end. We rotated/flipped it during our stay, to no better result. The upstairs mattresses are also worn. The location is an easy 2 minute bike ride to the Goulds Inlet beach access which we enjoyed a lot. The access at the house is a 10-minute hike thru the dunes and around a lagoon and is not conducive to hauling beach gear across. The A/C worked well for us and the temps were comfortable. Four stars for cleanliness because of age of construction but we saw no glaring offenses. We would return with assurances of new mattresses throughout.

Such a cute beach cottage - perfect for a family of 4! Enjoyed the sounds of the ocean from the screened in porch and the view from the deck! The short 5 min walk over the dunes made it easy to get to the beach!

This is a nice little rental house close to the water.It was peaceful, just wish the weather was better but we were down on business and didn't get to pick the weather!

The failure on my part was not paying enough attention to negative reviews. In my defense I was in a rush to find a place that would allow a larger dog. Also, suspiciously many of the positive reviews appear to be duplicates, but perhaps are fed in from questionnaire responses externally from direct rentals from management company's site. This place is extremely outdated, and tiny. It is nestled in the midst of very nice and what appears to be well maintained properties. The owners of this one take the cheap route to maintain the place. Examples: lamps in the main bedroom didn't work - not the bulbs, the lamps themselves did not turn on due to bad switches. Plateware and utensils were ragged and some were actually dirty - as in not cleaned from previous use. All furniture was ragged, stains on cloth seating, generally everything somewhat dirty. The mini split air conditioner did not work in the bedroom, which I found previously reported as faulty in an earlier review but did not work at all for us. As a result bedroom was very hot and had to rely on fans to try to pull cooler air from living room. Lots of insects inside the unit. Property management was responsive about the AC problem and tried to be helpful, they tried sending for AC repair but could not be completed in the time we would be there, so we decided to check out early and management offered a partial refund - I have not yet received it but it's only been 1 day.

Cozy bungalow. Easy walk to ocean beach. Quiet neighborhood.
