Great stay for the two of us and our dog. The cottage is perfect size, one bedroom with a nice kitchen and living area. It is just three houses back from the beach access. The beach is wide and clean. There are several good restaurants within a couple miles, and a handful within walking distance.

Beach Getaway

Rich and Lauren were the best host. The Sand Dollar west was the perfect spot for us and our little Dachshund, it was just a 2 minute walk to the beach. The room was clean and had all the amenities you could need. Several restaurants were a short walk away also. We will definitely be staying there again.
