I couldn't imagine a better experience for our group of 10 guests. Lesley's communication was proactive and kind, and she was exceptionally hospitable. The house itself is also perfect for a group of this size.

Leslie and her family have put together a top-notch home-away-from-home at East Beach. This is without even a close second, the best airb-n-b I have ever stayed in. We came for my birthday weekend and my 2 kids with spouses and babies. This house truly has it all - 2 cribs, a wonderfully stocked kitchen, fabulous screened porches, a CHILLED pool - amazing in steamy August! Plus so much more and that folks have already mentioned. Leslie is wonderful and feels like my newest BFF! Honestly, part of me is tempted to leave a terrible review so that I can make sure there is availability for us to come back next year!! 😂😂😂. Alas, such subterfuge is not in my nature so I can only say, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!! Beds, pillows, towels, blow up floaties, shuffle board, great decor…the McCreary family nailed it with this one. We hope to return next year!

No need to bring your own pillow…or towels…or beach chairs! This house has it all! Comfy beds, plush bed pillows, bikes, beach chairs and umbrellas, beach towels, extra fans and all the kitchen amenities you could ask for! Dinning room and screened porch tables accommodate all your people! We loved being able to spread out in various areas of the house from the screened porch to sunroom to front screened porch to pool deck, and if you have to be in the A/C the living room! We were a large family of 9 adults and it surpassed our expectations! It’s the best beach house we have ever rented in our decades of renting. Highly recommend this house and host!

Our stay at the Highflyer Cottage was PERFECT! We had a large group and the house accommodated everyone with room to spare! Our host, was the best! Lesley checked in with us to make sure everything was going well and to see if anything was needed! She was great and super easy to work with! The house is absolutely a hidden gem! So spacious and equipped with everything you need. The kids loved having their space (ping-pong table, bikes, floats, etc.) and we as adults, loved our space (screened in porch for morning coffee and conversation). The backyard is the best! A beautiful pool and an area for the kids to play cornhole or just hang out in the sun - it was exactly what we needed. The kitchen was updated and spacious and the entire house was decorated beautifully! We had such a great time and hated to leave but will definitely be back and look forward to staying again at the Highflyer Cottage!

High Flyer Cottage exceeded all expectations! The house, landscape and pool are not only beautiful, but every amenity you could possibly dream of is included! The kitchen has anything and everything you would possibly need. Every feature is top shelf. Beds are very comfortable, as is all the furniture. There are so many different seating areas, indoors and out. It is a short walk to the beach, but because it was extremely hot weather, we lived in the pool. There is a table that we sat 10 people around comfortably. Lesley was a wonderful host; prompt and responsive. There is not enough space to list all the complimentary things I could say about High Flyer Cottage! We are already looking forward to our next trip there!

The house, pool and location was perfect for our family vacation. The house is beautifully decorated and the kids loved the bunk room. We vacation with 3 generations each summer. We spent the most time on the spacious screen porch. The grandchildren loved playing in the pool when we weren't at the beach. We like to eat in and take turns cooking. The kitchen was well stocked for all the delicious meals that were cooked. It was nice having the stools at the kitchen counter for kids next to the adult table. The beach at the end of 11th St was never crowded and no one complained about the short walk. It was great having the beach buggy to carry the nice beach chairs from the house. The property manager Lesley was just an email away and was quick to respond to any questions. I hope we will be back next summer.
