| Beautiful cottage right on the ocean. Incredibly child friendly with all the amenities we could have needed for our stay. We were 2 couples, 2 kids and 1 dog. Plenty of space for us all. Jodie was quick to answer my emails and checked in on us during our stay. Check in instructions were easy to follow and Jodie was quick to return my deposit after we left. Every detail was thought of, we had everything we needed and then some. Everything was clearly labelled and easy to find. We were so happy to have some coffee and freezes upon arrival with a lovely welcome note. The beds were so comfortable, better than expected. The AC kept us cool and the screened in room was our favorite place to hang out. The beach was gorgeous, rocky though so I recommend water shoes. Tatamagouche is a short drive away, really lovely town with some great restaurants and shops. A lot of thought and care went into this place, it was really special and we hope to come back again.

| This is a classic seaside cottage with modern touches - everything is organized and easy to find. Our family of six - plus our dog - was comfortable and had plenty of space. We loved the screened-in porch where we watched the amazing sunsets, and we spent most of our time swimming in the warm water. Instructions for arrival and departure were clear and easy to follow. The host was welcoming and helpful.

| This is a gem! This cottage is well-maintained and equipped with everything you could need. We really appreciated the Keurig cups for our daily coffee. The screened in porch was an amazing option so we could enjoy the sun and air without the bugs. Town is so close and it's fun to check out things like the local potter, art gallery, and farmer's market! Jodie was always helpful and responsive.
