The location is beautiful and just steps away from the beach. Kristen was a perfect host and made you feel like family. Would recommend this to a couple who wants to get away.

Cozy little cottage. Perfect for a quiet fall weekend away. Loved that we could just sit on the porch & watch the waves

Minisands is a wonderful getaway spot! Beautiful cottage with great location and being steps away from the beach is priceless. Sitting on the front deck with views and sounds of the ocean is amazing! Enjoyed every minute of our stay!

One of the best trips my husband and I have ever taken, I only wish we had time to stay longer. The cottage was adorable and well appointed. The ocean was visible from the bedroom, which is incredible for afternoon napping. Very impressed and will definitely return.

Our stay at Minisands was great. The house was clean and exactly as described. The location is great. The beach is just a stone’s throw from the front door. My only complaint about the property is that the bedroom is just a few feet from the road. This isn’t a problem at night since the road isn’t busy. However, traffic picks up early and it sounds like the cars are right on top of you. Fortunately I had ear plugs. Even with the noise, we’d stay there again.

Minisands is perfect for a couple or small family that loves the beach! Hearing the waves at night was my Mom and Dads favorite. I loved being able to walk acrossed to the beach every morning. The parking was tight for a big truck, however i found backing down the driveway to be much easier to maneuver. Having the parking right there though saved in having to pay at the beach everyday. A little outdoor grill might be nice in the back for cooking more dinner meals in (we made breakfast everyday).
Kristen the host was easy to communicate with if needed. I would recommend this tiny home for sure. Thanks for our beach front stay!
