Guest Book: ****************Guest Comment:********* What a paradise! Our family spent the most relaxing week at Sweet Creek Cottage. It is the most enchanting child-friendly vacation home offered anywhere, and is so close to the beach but away from all the traffic!! The kids had so much fun exploring every detail and adventure this house has to offer. We just had the best time, and can't wait to return next summer and for many more summers to come. You just can't find a place more child friendly and more relaxing. From Pam// California
