We enjoyed our stay here! The outdoor space, garden, and hot tub were great. We found the kitchen to be on the barer side in terms of having cookware and supplies stocked. We also noticed that only one of the sinks in the whole house seemed to have actual hand soap. Other hand soap provided was extremely watered down or appeared to be hair conditioner. The downstairs bedroom and bath are much nicer than upstairs, but all the accommodations were acceptable. The upstairs bedrooms do have interior “windows” to the loft area that let in a lot of light if any other lights in the house are on. Communication with Jessica was very smooth, and she was even able to reimburse us for some supplies we needed to buy, which we appreciated. Location was great for our weekend away.

My wife and I gathered here with friends for the weekend. It was a great house with fun amenities and close to the water. Having it be dog friendly with a large fenced back yard was wonderful. I would definitely stay here again!

This property is absolutely beautiful! We really enjoyed the stunning garden, beautiful garden view from the hot tub and the spaciousness of the place for our group. We all had room to spread out, cook, and hang out in different areas. My main complaints were that the hosts contacted us multiple times daily with conflicting info, including changing their request for quiet hours from 10-8 to 8-8 with “as minimal noise as possible”. It felt somewhat misleading from what was advertised. Also, the soap, shampoo, conditioners were mixed with over 50%+ water, so it was basically unusable. The hot tub wasn’t up to temp when we tried to use it initially (although we were able to turn it up, it just took a few hours!), and there’s lights full of dead bugs in the kitchen. That being said, we genuinely enjoyed everything by else about the place! It was clean otherwise, had an abundance of plates/mugs/silverware for a big group and would be perfect for family trips!

May 01, 2023 My family and I booked this for my birthday weekend getaway. My family and I booked this for my birthday weekend getaway. My best friend ended joining as well and there was plenty of room for all 9 of us! When we arrived we struggled with the door code (that was an us problem lol) but the host was extremely responsive, like within seconds, and helped us gain access to the home. The kitchen was fully stocked for us to make breakfast in the morning, big lunch in the afternoon and barbecue for dinner. Everything was clean and organized and exactly how pictured. The host welcomed us with a beautiful card and even remembered it was my birthday and made me feel extra special. We would definitely come back and recommend this place to others. Thank you to the host for such a great weekend experience Lindsay

Very easy to connect with and responsive whenever we needed something. Thank you Jessica! Xavier Alcantara
May 12, 2024 My family stayed over the weekend and had a great time here! The hot tub was very well taken care of and clean, and we enjoyed playing yard games while the dog chased his ball around the yard! The game room was fun, the beds were very comfortable and clean, and the kitchen looks very new. It felt very homey from the minute we walked in. Maureen Nash

May 28, 2024 The house was very beautiful, well decorated, spacious, and located in a quiet calming neighborhood. Kids loved it as there were games to play in the house. When we had some issues, it was resolved immediately and impressively! I would suggest having some more variety of utensils and pots and pans stocked to cook. We would surely recommend it to friends. Thank you for accommodating us. binu joseph

Aug 28, 2024 Great location, hosts were very responsive. Like the fenced in back yard. Mark Ingersoll
Aug 12, 2024 Sea shell cottage was literally amazing to say the least we went for a family reunion and were not let down at all! All of the people are also amazing and the host of this house was so helpful and cool this house was definitely one of the more homeie air bnbs that are family has stayed in and all of the pictures posted of this house were very real to the truth we absolutely will have to come back and the view was breathtaking!! Loved it to say the least Mark Becker
Sep 03, 2024 This place was so cozy and homey. Had all the amenities and more. My dad loved harvesting the fresh vegetables from the garden. My mom loved the soaker tub in the master ensuite. Our pups loved the large yard. The kids loved the rec room with all the games. We loved sipping our coffee from the upper deck. And everyone loved the hot tub. Carrie Nguyen

Sep 10, 2024 Everything was really great and beautiful and felt really comfortable. The only negative thing I have to say was is that there were way too many texts and emails with reminders of the upcoming stay and also instructions, etc. Just too many. Otherwise everything was great. Jolene Balsimo
Oct 25, 2024 Great stay, clean and nicely appointed kitchen. Arden Nywening
Jul 30, 2024 The area was very peaceful and the house was just like the photos and in a very peaceful location. Jessica at Gather Vacations was on the spot with everything- being proactive with instructions, answering questions, you name it. Would definitely stay again! Kelly Patterson
Aug 04, 2024 We couldn’t have been happier with the house. It was very comfortable and entertaining for the kiddos. The fenced yard for the dog was awesome too. Michael Spears
Jul 09, 2024 Overall, our family had a nice time at this house. The location was optimal and the yard and garden were amazing. A few areas of recommendations: 1.) If you’re cooking there were a lack of mixing bowls and dishes for cooking. Bring extra if you can! Also bring a hand mixer if you’re planning on baking. If basic cooking, probably enough supplies. Expect to handwash dishes as they have the smallest dishwasher. 2.) The guest beds were not comfortable and could use an upgrade. 3.) If you have young kids, I recommend doing a once over on the chemicals in the house. They are in arms reach for young kiddos and not labeled with Mr. Yuck stickers. 4.) The floors were quite dirty - we don’t wear shoes in our houses in general and our bare feet were dark by the end of the night. 5.) The kitchen power kept going off and we had to reset it using a weird processes my dad figured out how to do. Customer service was responsive and they dealt with a few issues swiftly which was appreciated. Melissa Erickson

Jun 26, 2024 Our stay at Seashell Cottage was almost perfect. The large house was very comfortable for our family gatherings. The kitchen was well-stocked, the house was clean and spacious, and the secure backyard was perfect for our fur babies. The neighborhood was quiet and the location was awesome. Holly Merritt

The bed we had was a bit firmer than we would have liked, but otherwise no complaints :) Alexa Siebring

Nov 19, 2024 As our very first Air BNB stay we were extremely excited upon arrival. We would buy this house. The pictures do not do any justice and it was perfect for our family. The kids loved the built-in entertainment with the game room, the hot tub and fenced in yard. I appreciated the soaker tub in the master, the dual sinks, washer/dryer, open yet, cozy vibe and impeccable, interior design. It is lacking one star due to cleanliness and a few issues (soiled comforter, hot water temperature, dead flies, and bulbs that went out). However, Jessica was on top of communication, touching on all my concerns (she even sent out a plumbing technician). We would stay here again. Jameson Vidal Toledo
Dec 02, 2024 A beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood, it was perfect for a family get-together for Thanksgiving. The kitchen was very roomy and worked out well for cooking Thanksgiving dinner for the family and friends. The kitchen is well stocked, but could be a little better organized. Plenty of room for our toddler to play and the fully fenced back yard was a real plus for the dogs. Jessica was very responsive and promptly resolved a minor issue that occurred at our arrival. Theresa Bergman
Dec 29, 2024 A Perfect Getaway Home for Relaxation and Family Time We had an amazing stay at this beautiful house! It’s incredibly spacious, giving everyone in the family plenty of room to relax and enjoy their time together. Whether we were lounging in the cozy living area or sharing meals in the well-designed kitchen, the house felt inviting and comfortable. The location was absolutely perfect—close enough to everything we needed while still offering a peaceful retreat. The surrounding area added to the relaxing atmosphere, and we loved spending quality time both indoors and outdoors. If you’re looking for a home that combines beauty, comfort, and a great location for family bonding or a serene escape, this is the place for you. Highly recommend! Courtney Grubb
Jan 06, 2025 Beautiful home/cabin close to the border. Lots of room and has a nice yard/hot tub. Games room was fun, bathrooms were nice. Just had an issue with checking in, fire place wasn’t working, heating was a little off (took a while to heat up), dishes were dirty & bed sheets had hair/fur on them. Regardless we’re able to have a great time here. Wanted to walk from the home and there was no sidewalks to go down to the water so found that a little difficult- drive to walk. Jessie Bansal,
Feb 05, 2025 The home was clean and well stocked for good cooking and set up for fun things for kids to do. The beds were very comfortable. Any questions we had were quickly answered with a text message. Internet service was very good, too. Mary Coonrod
Feb 24, 2025 Had a lovely girls weekend at this location. Hot tub and fireplace were warm and welcoming. Kitchen is well stocked. Will go back again. Patricia Jones
