Description

3 Bedrooms | 1 Full Bathroom | 1 Half Bathroom
1 Queen | 2 Twins | 2 Twin-over-double Bunk Beds | 1 Double Sofa Bed

If your vacation vibes lean towards lazy, sun-drenched afternoons and nostalgic memories of a bygone era, then let a stay at Ivy Cottage refresh your soul. Nestled among the dunes of East Beach, this cozy oceanfront cabin welcomes two dogs and has a grassy, fenced backyard for your babies and fur-babies alike to play safely in as well as a spacious deck where you’re sure to spend hours listening to the waves and enjoying the sea air.

The open-concept main living area features original wood paneling and fun nautical details. Gather around the wall-mounted flatscreen TV to watch your favorite shows or spread one of the classic boardgames stocked at the home across the coffee table for some friendly competition. The compact eat-in kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook during your stay, and the round table here seats four comfortably. Just beyond, the Florida room offers a second living space with two couches including a double sleeper sofa, a second TV and an additional dining table that seats six.

The master bedroom is furnished with a queen bed and offers a TV for personal entertainment. There is also an ensuite half bath for your convenience. The other two bedrooms are each furnished with a twin bed and a twin-over-double bunk bed. The shared full bathroom down the hall provides a step-in glass shower stall. A small utility room offers a stackable washer and dryer so there’s no need to haul sandy towels and swimsuits back home.

Outside, the grassy fenced side yard is an oceanfront rarity, a perfect spot for dogs and kids to run off extra energy. The enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water is also appreciated when it comes time to rinse off after time spent on the beach. Cook out on the charcoal grill and dine al fresca at the classic picnic table under the shade of an umbrella. Listen to the crash of the waves from the oceanside deck, where you'll find plenty of comfortable seating including classic rockers and even a small breakfast bar perfect for enjoying morning coffee or evening cocktails. Gates at either end of the deck make this a safe space for little ones as well and a cantilevered umbrella provides shade. Build castles in the sand, take long walks along the shore and make memories together to last a lifetime at Ivy Cottage.

Please note there are limited ocean views over dune line.

This was our best year coming to OI. We have always stayed in Caswell Dunes, but decided we wanted oceanfront. The Ivy Cottage was reasonably priced and OIA made it possible to obtain. We had one small maintenance issue and it was taken care of the next morning. The ease of getting on the beach, the cute cottage with a great deck and the pier within walking distance we just some of the wonderful things.

Ivy Cottage is a lovely, old-timey beach cottage with lots of privacy. The sunroom provides extra indoor living space with full view of the ocean. There are plenty of flatscreen TVs and the wireless service is reliable. The beach is just a short walk away. The best thing was minimal stairs for our arthritic dog. The empty lot next door gave her easy access to the beach without having to go up and down more than needed. We had a great stay there and will definitely be back!
