This was our first VRBO experience where there was plenty of towels, chairs, and activities for everyone to enjoy while laid out and well thought out property very impressed and look forward to returning.

We walked in to a clean and well furnished home. Dawn even had coffee beans waiting in the freezer along with some snacks on the counter. They truly thought of everything- even umbrellas to borrow when it rained. Thank you Dawn for a wonderful weekend! Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2022

It was a wonderful cottage to unwind and walk on the beach. The amenities are 5 star including the kitchen. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022

The level of care and detail at the place was truly impressive and made for an outstanding weekend. Check-in was seamless with the keypad, and Dawn was very responsive to all of our questions.

The place itself is exactly as described – a cozy space above the garage with beautiful views. Lovely down comforters kept us warm despite the cold weekend. The fireplace is unique and mesmerizing, and they have a well-stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook if you choose to do so (pots, pans, knives, baking dishes, olive oil, and a good variety of spices, too!). Delicious coffee beans with a grinder and french press. It’s a quick walk to the private beach, which we enjoyed every day despite the cold and the nor’easter. It must be even more lovely in the summer when you can swim! We’d love to return again.

Always helpful communications, everything above expectations, and extra touches remind you, “this is the benefit of people to people.” Beautiful views made for a terrific backdrop for my daughter’s video interview and a great sense of privacy even though you know you were somehow near the owners. We enjoyed our stay, all of the amenities showed an owner who put effort into her guest care, and I highly recommend it. Take the advice on the Crab roll, too. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2021

We bought breakfast and lunch supplies from the local Stop and Shop and brought dinner in from local restaurants each night. Everything we needed to make and serve meals was here. The closeness to the beach and the amazing late Oct weather combined to lure us outside for walks several times every day.
Thank you Dawn, you have a wonderful, peaceful retreat.

We did not meet the owner in person, but that was fine, as we got all the necessary information before and were able to just unlock our doors and go in and relax. Everything was exactly as described, clean, and beautiful. The small touches were really appreciated. Small snacks were left for us, chocolates, and handy bathroom items. It made such a difference. Really lovely. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021

The view is beautiful and I miss hearing the ocean already. Our host was friendly, knowledgeable of the area, and thoughtful. We would recommend this property to anyone. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2021
10/10 Excellent Stephanie B. 21 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy None Perfect getaway weekend and child friendly! We had an amazing stay at the carriage house. From booking to check out, everything was easy, stress-free and felt very safe. Dawn answered all of my questions in a timely manner and communication was a breeze. My 16 month old daughter loved playing in the apartment, and it is very child friendly. Dawn was sweet enough to set up the pack and play, high chair and outlet covers. All three of us loved the beach. We felt very welcome and it was great having the beach chairs and umbrella provided for us. We loved that we could just simply walk across the street and be on a beautiful beach. Dawn had great recommendations for restaurants and things to do in the area. We can’t say enough good things and we keep raving about our getaway weekend. It was the perfect place for mom and dad to take a little break! We will definitely be returning to the carriage house. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2021
