Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natalie M. 26 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy stay with a great location This cottage was adorable and perfect for my husband and I. We’ve stayed in AMI for over 15 years now and I was quick to note how clean everything was (no mold in bathroom and pool area immaculate- which is not usually common!). The cottage is tucked in between the two main roads but perfectly located so that 1) it’s quiet and 2) your steps away from the beach. We had an easy bike ride to Pine Ave. This cottage would really exceed expectations if there was laundry and access to the front room (additional place for items like empty suitcases, husbands golf clubs, etc.) Overall, we would easily stay again. It was a cozy, comfortable, peaceful, perfect stay. ##### Natalie M.

Having a pool was an added asset. I would like to suggest that a small washer and dryer be installed and that more toilet paper and soap be available for the guests. ##### Graciella N. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jenny K. 28 Jul 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great, much needed vacation This lovely little cottage was the perfect amount of room for my husband and me. I was a little concerned about it being a duplex, but we never heard a sound from the other side of the house unless we were outside. I loved that each side had it’s own private pool/patio area. The bed was very comfortable. We had everything that we needed right there at the cottage. We were just a short walk to the beach, made easier with the wagon provided. ##### Jenny K.
