About this property
DB 8 "Anchors Away"--1 BR Cottage, Kitchen, Living Room, Walk to Beach, Dogs OK!
GUEST MUST BE AT LEAST 23 YEARS OF AGE TO BOOK THIS PROPERTY
Welcome to the iconic Double Barr Cottages! Double Barr has been a favorite of Port A visitors for generations and is perfect for a quick beach getaway, a fishing trip, or family fun. Located just a couple of blocks from the beach in the "golf cart zone", you can walk, bike, or take a cart to the beach, fishing, or the many shops, restaurants, and other attractions downtown. The property has free parking, outdoor dining areas, gas BBQ grills, a fish cleaning house, and a free guest laundry.
Cottage #8 (Low Tide) has been recently updated with a new configuration. When you enter, you'll find a kitchenette and a dining area that seats four. The main room has a retro vibe that will take you back to the Port A's historic past. The kitchen includes a refrigerator/freezer, gas stove, microwave, a coffee station, and all of the kitchen basics. While we supply pots, pans, dishes and utensils, we do not supply any reusable basics such a oil, spices, or condiments for safety reasons.
Low Tide now has a separate living area with a sleeper sofa, a coffee table, and additional seating to give you a place to relax and catch a movie after a day at the beach. Whether you're in town for a weekend or several weeks, the living room gives you a comfortable space to watch television, play a game, or read. The couch folds out into a full sized bed to sleep 2 small adults or children. A smart television and wireless internet are included.
The bedroom is next to the living area and sleeps four guests. It has a queen bed, and a set of bunk beds. Please note that the weight limit for the bunk beds are 150 pounds. Next to the bedroom is the full bath with walk-in shower. Towels for use in the house, linens, and basic soaps are provided.
Outside, you'll find green space to relax or spend time with your four-legged friend.
There is parking for two small vehicles next to the cottage. There is overflow parking available for oversize vehicles, boat trailers, or extra vehicles. Please inquire about availability of additional parking.
The cottage has window air-conditioning units and gas heat. Guests can use the outdoor picnic areas and gas BBQ grills. The guest laundry with 2 sets of washer/dryers is available.
Double Barr Cottages is dog-friendly subject to weight and breed limitations. We welcome well-behaved, adult dogs and ask that you clean up after them outside and kennel them if left alone in the cabin. There is a pet cleaning fee of $50 per pet per stay. If you plan on bringing a dog, please let us know the weight and breed so we can pre-approve their stay with you.
