Rating

quaint cottage

mama jones Beverly Hills, Mi
Review Submitted: August 26, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
The location is very convenient to the shops and the beach. One of the best nights was walking with the kids to get ice cream and then walking to the beach to play and watch the sunset. The cottage was very cute and I believe the bathroom has been recently renovated. There was also a nice enclosed front porch. The kids appreciated the books, toys and videos that were there. I would definitely come back. We love it in Empire!!
