This is our 3rd time staying at the Cottage We absolutely love the space, the decor and each bedroom has its own bathroom. The ease of check in is a plus, the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. We will be back next year.

We were looking for a place in St. James that would give us space and relaxation. this was a perfect spot for our purposes. We are building a home in the Plantation and were looking for a place close to the build site, and this was about a mile away. The condo was well maintained, very clean, bug free and very quiet giving us a space to relax in and forget about things when wee wanted to. Joel, the owner, was very accommodating, and we are going to use this location again and again during our building process. One of the many positive point to this location is that it is almost across the street from Players Club which made it convenient for meals if we wanted something quick or just wanted to go to a bar for something we might not have had at the Condo. Very nice place and really big for a condo, our friends who live in the area said it would be perfect for them if at some point they wanted to downsize just a little (mainly go to one floor living)

Great long weekend stay. Property was very clean and comfortable. The host was very responsive and a pleasure to work with. Will definitely stay here again.

My Wife and I Enjoyed a Wonderful Stay at a beautifully appointed and very comfortable Cottage Retreat Condo. Our Hosts were very gracious by welcoming us and being very receptive to communicating when we had questions. Condo is in a beautiful location, very well laid out floor plan , convenient and comfortable. Great Place to Stay !!!

The property was as advertised. We enjoyed our stay. We would definitely recommend this property to other prospective renters.

This property was what we were hoping for to allow for extended family to visit with family members traveling to be with us. My parents stayed in this unit, providing them their own space with few stairs to negotiate near one of the country clubs included in this town. Overall, a very nice space to share with family to join in our celebration - bringing together four generations for fun, food and fellowship.

This was our second time staying at Cottage Retreat, this time with the kids. The space is perfect. There is nothing Joel & Sally do not provide, from first walking in the door you can see they take pride in their home as well as being exceptional hosts. If you are looking for a quiet low key vacation home don't hesitate to book. It's located about 15 mins to the beach, tons of restaurants, coffee & ice cream shops galore. We experienced no issues parking at the beach. If you love Pizza try Falcones next to Lowes Foods the pizza was to die for. there is also a new bagel store (Bagel Dock) and their egg sandwiches and bagels are great, order ahead it took nearly an hour on Saturday to get our order. Port City Java has the best Coffee and treats. Mermaids ice cream and bakery on Oak Island is an absolute must. We will be back next year. Thank you Joel & Sally you deserve a Best Hosts Ever award.

We've stayed in 5 different condos at St. James - in the Marina, Members Club and here at the Players Club. We liked this one the best. Our host Joel was responsive, gracious and accommodating. His instructions were detailed, informative and complete. Any questions I had were quickly answered. The townhouse was super clean and well-equipped with many appreciated extras such as beach towels, chairs and an umbrella. Thanks for making our stay so memorable!
