You can easily reach us by phone, or email. For any urgent issues after hours, we also offer a 24-hour emergency line, ensuring support at any time during your stay. Family-Friendly: As parents of young children, we understand the challenges of traveling with little ones. That's why we've made our home as family-friendly as possible. We provide a Pack 'n Play with crib sheets, and there’s ample space in any bedroom for set up. We’ve also stocked kid-friendly cups, bowls, plates, and utensils, along with books, games, and puzzles for fun family time together! Pet-Friendly Accommodations: We welcome one dog only (up to 60 lbs) for a fee of $325 per stay. This fee helps cover the additional cleaning required for pet hair. Guests are responsible for cleaning up after their pet, and dogs should not be left unattended in the home, as barking may disturb neighbors. Please note: Dogs are not allowed in the pool. Please let us know if you are traveling with a dog Pool: Our private pool is seasonal, typically open from late March or early April through October, weather permitting. The exact opening and closing dates shift a little each year with the weather, so just send us a message and we'll happily confirm the dates for your stay. Outside the season the pool is winterized and covered — the hot tub is available year-round. Pool Heating: Pool heating is available for $125 per day plus tax. It's booked for the full length of your stay and needs to be requested and paid for in advance, with at least five days' notice, so we have time to bring the water up to temperature. Water temperature does depend on the weather, so we're not able to promise an exact degree. Hot Tub: The hot tub is included in your nightly rate at no additional charge, and we turn it on ahead of your arrival. No Adhesives on Walls or Glitter: Do not use tape, hooks, stickers, or any other materials to attach decorations or items to the walls, as this may cause damage. Glitter is extremely difficult to clean and can cause lasting damage to furniture and surfaces. Thank you for respecting our home and helping us provide a clean, welcoming space for every guest. Pests: Corolla is home to midges, tiny seasonal bugs that are harmless and do not bite, but they can appear in large numbers. To keep them out, we recommend keeping doors closed as much as possible and turning off outdoor lights at night, as light attracts them. We regularly treat the area, but they may still be present outdoors. Bug spray is a great idea for enjoying the deck and pool areas. Additionally, snakes from the nearby marsh can occasionally be spotted. If you see one on the property, please contact us immediately, and we will arrange for animal control to remove it.

Overall great location! The heated pool was worth it! Elevator was great! We had great communication with the host throughout our trip. Highly recommend a 4x4 to go on the 4WD beach nearby. If you’re not used to seeing midges, there can be many trying to get into the house in the evening. The front entrance could use a power wash because there’s so many cobwebs.

Fantastic property right on the sound front with amazing views from both the living room and from the private dock. Hot tub and pool were lovely. Rooms were spacious and light. All amenities we needed were provided, and the hosts were excellent - especially quick to respond to any queries and really helpful. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Great place to stay! The cottage was clean and well maintained. The dryer was not working but the host stayed in communication and was willing to accommodate with extra linens. Let's not forget, the sunsets were breathtaking!!!
