Lovely and well maintained home in a great location!! We loved going to the beach all day, cleaning up/rejuvenating for night of sunset watching, dinner and Oink’s. That’s our routine for four days. Owner was cooperative and available for questions.

Family weekend

We stayed at Red Pine retreat for a family event. The cottage was spacious and clean. The host provided lots of supplies typically needed such as towels, beach towels, cooking and cleaning supplies. The host was very easy to get a hold of and communicate with. I would definitely recommend staying at their home. Great weekend had by the whole family. Thank you Jaime and Brian.

We have stayed here three times and obviously like the place. The location is perfect; the cabin is comfortable and well-equipped.We had an issue with the main water line on day 3. Jamie had a plumber out that day to deal with it.Unfortunately, the issue was too serious: so Jamie gave us a full refund and recommended a place one-half mile away ( after he checked to see if they had availability). The new place was great. I thought Jamie handled all these issues with professionalism and efficiency. Problems happen. This one was resolved beautifully.

So much space!

We stayed at this lovely property in mid June. It's location is fantastic- close to beaches and the downtown area. So many amenities - linens, beach chairs and towels, coffee and coffee maker, fully outfitted kitchen and plenty of seating for family visiting. Even toys for the little ones!

A pleasant house. There is a fire pit and a nice grill and no seating for outdoor dining. It would benefit from a second dehumidifier.

A Perfect Stay!

This is truly a fantastic location! It is woodsy yet close to the beach, shops, and restaurants. There is plenty of space to spread out. Everything is clean, maintained, and fully stocked. If you forget something, there is also a small market within walking distance. I appreciate having a washer and dryer on site. You can tell Jaime and Brian truly care for their cottage and guests and go above and beyond to ensure a nice stay. They respond quickly to communication and checked in with us along the way. We enjoyed lots of beach time and amazing sunsets, picking blueberries, Captain Mike's, bike rides, sitting by the fire and making s'mores, and finding cozy spots to relax and read. Overall, it was a perfect vacation and amazing hosts. Our family had a wonderful time and we came home relaxed and rejuvenated. Thank you for everything!
