Reviews

Lovely Cottage!
5/5 stars
We had a wonderful time at Beach Blessing! It was perfect for our small family including our dog. The kitchen is well stocked and we enjoyed the large TV in the living room. We enjoyed the swing out front and in the backyard, along with the beautiful flower garden! We also made use of the bikes and went on many walks over the scenic bridge to the beach, about 10-15 minute walk. The cottage is very clean and everything is in working order. We would stay here again!

Beach Blessing
5/5 stars
Well, the name of the property is appropriate--we found the accommodations relaxing and rejuvenating--from the comfortable bedding to the back yard garden. And the amenities for the beach (and bikes) were greatly appreciated. We found the kitchen perhaps the best equipped than any rental property ever--from the expresso machine to the cutlery/dinner ware to the spices and cooking aides! And the location--a short walk to the beach over a marsh walkway or quick drive to one of OKI's well placed parking spots--made the beach seem like it was just across the street. And finally, James at iTrip was always easily available and ready to assist. We will look forward with great anticipation to the next trip to OKI!
- Jim

Thanks so much for your review. We appreciate you taking the time to give us feedback and on what is good and also how we can improve. And thanks for the shout out to James. He tries very hard to be accessible and prompt with his responses to any questions.Thanks again!
