Short family getaway
The Normandy cottage was great for my small family trip to meet up with my son who is stationed in GA for the holidays. We had an issue with the front door lock at check in but a rep was less than a minute away with a key to open the door. There was a critter issue brought by the rain, but that was also handled very quickly considering it was the holidays. It is an older home with some water damage and smelled a bit musty because of the rain. Twin beds in second bedroom probably handle children's weight better than adults as the mattresses were very thin and the frames rickety. House was much larger than we expected, lovely furnishings and everything was extremely clean. Location was excellent as it is down the block from the beach, which we enjoyed on the two sunny days we had out of a week of rain. Walkable neighborhood, close to excellent restaurants and shops. Overall, it was a great stay and would probably stay again.
