Rented this property specifically for Oysterfest. Everything was within walking distance to the festival, restaurants, and cute shop. We will definitely stay here again! Very clean and comfortable!
We spent two winter months in this dated but comfortable cottage near downtown Fulton. It had homey touches and all the basics (except washer/dryer; laundromat isn’t far). Doors and windows could use weather-proofing, it was drafty on cold days. There's no residential mail delivery but the post office is a block away, so we rented a box for forwarded mail. Waterfront with marina, pier, restaurants and bars is a block away. Bars can be noisy at night, bring your ear plugs! Big fenced yard, picnic table and grill.
Great Location, Very Clean & Wonderful Communication.
We loved the location. Easy to walk to restaurants. Please was clean and as described. And the email communication regarding check in / check out. We will be back.
We love this little house, it’s charming and the location is perfect. Our pups love the yard!! It was our second time staying and I hope we get many more visits.
My family and I are so happy we choice this property. The house is in a nice area and close to everything. The house was the perfect size for a family of four and plenty of yard space of dogs. Can’t wait to book another trip.
Nice property- great location! House was clean - plenty of towels and amenities. My second time to stay here and would stay here again. Sofas and beds are not the most comfortable, but overall we truly enjoyed our stay.
I loved this property; the back porch, the gorgeous trees, the spacious yard, proximity to the bay, the comfortable bed, and the central heating/cooling as the weather changed a lot.
My dogs loved the yard and walking to the marina and the bay. The kitchen is quite nice with a big roomy table.
We enjoyed the house. There was some damage on the second bedroom window seal from what looks like wood rot. Additionally, dont forget to bring your coffee (there is no coffee in the house). The front door is challenging to get in and needs repair so we found ourselves going through the back door most of the time.
The house is in a great location and provides great access to the local area. It needs maintenance and work, but cozy and comfortable.
The property is in the perfect location. From the back porch deck you can see straight to the boat harbor with no obstruction. Many great restaurants in very short walking distance. Public fishing pier is also short distance.
My stay was 7 days & 6 nights. My only suggestion is more wash clothes, hand towels & kitchen towels for long staying guests, other than that it was perfect!!!
Comfortable cottage in great location. I like almost everything about the place. Just one of the beds was very firm and a bit too high for my parents to use. Fortunatly the other bed is lower and softer so parents stayed in that room. I didn't even think to ask about height of beds. So peaceful to sit on the back porch at night. Would stay there again.
This is our 3rd or 4th time to stay at this home. The location is great and the home has a great fenced yard for our dogs. It is always very clean. We did notice this time that some minor inside cosmetic repairs are needed. A window frame in a bedroom looks rotted and part of it was missing, maybe water damage. The back door does not close well and a few of the plastic blind slats were broken or missing. These issues were not present during our last stay in Oct 2023.
Great location! Easy walking to restaurants and also one block to run/walk along the Ocean. Beautiful view - I loved sitting on back porch with my cup of coffee and a book. House was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Hosts are superb! Great communication and very helpful when needed. Thank you."
This house is an excellent location, so cute, very clean and perfect for pets.
This home lacked for nothing and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There is great food and shopping right across the street. We loved the porches and view of the bay. We will be back!!
