8/10 Very good

My sister and I spent two nights at the Cottage. It was very clean and comfortable. Although the entrance path is wheelchair accessible, there is a step up into the cottage which caused some difficulty. Laurel plans to address this issue for future guests. Laurel was very friendly and welcoming. Close to beach and nearby restaurants
