Johnny was super responsive and accomodating. The cottage was adorable, clean and comfortable, as well as being in a beautiful and convenient location. We only had 3 days, but would have loved weeks. The space is cozy, yet affords plenty of privacy. We were a party of 6, including a toddler and baby so this was important, including the expansive, yet cozy backyard which also had comfortable furniture and play area. Thanks for a great weekend!

Cozy, comfy, and close to beaches!

The house is in a cute, safe neighborhood. The patio seating was the most comfortable I've ever sat on, which was great for enjoying the amazing weather every morning and evening. The boys enjoyed the basketball hoop, and the large sectional sofa in the living room was perfect for our movie night. The kitchen isn't big so some maneuvering is needed if more than 1 is trying to be in there, but the house was stocked up with plenty of supplies for us to cook several meals there. The beds were comfortable too. The house is literally 5 mins away from a grocery store and all kinds of food places. It was so easy to get to the beach from the house, too. All in all, a perfect place for our little summer getaway - would definitely rent again. Johnny is really great and responded to all of my messages super quickly.
We're from Phoenix so 60-ish degrees feels very cold! Enjoyed morning coffee each day on the patio on the super comfortable outdoor sectional.

Comfortable & spacious home

We enjoyed our stay at this home while we were having some work done on our own house. The beds were comfortable and the yard was spacious for our dog. The host was helpful and communicated well. Thanks for a great stay!
