These cottages check all the boxes. They're beautiful, private, quiet, and a true escape from the hustle and bustle. Close enough to walk to the beach as well as the little downtown area. I can't say enough good things about how cute and perfect this cottage was. I can't wait to return!
We were here for our honeymoon and they surprised us with a cake! Very thoughtful and a nice touch. 10/10 would recommend!

Dreamy Townie 2!
Truly a dream come true! Beautifully designed with every detail in mind. As a family of four we loved everything the property had to offer: heated pool, private hot tub, grill, outdoor green area, fire pit. It was a short walk to the beach and we had access to the private Gordon Beach area. The kids loved the bunk bed! We had a small issue arise but the team was super responsive and fixed it quickly. All in all, will be back and will plan a longer stay next time!

The cottage was impeccably decorated and so well thought out—we absolutely loved the adorable kitchen and living area, and the private hot tub was amazing! Beautiful shared pool and so easy to walk to the beach each day and to local restaurants, shops and coffee shops. We can’t wait to stay again in the future!

Loved the townies at Union Pier! We rented two of them for grandparents and us, which worked out perfectly! The design is on point, comfortable but stylish. The pool was great, the beach was walking distance and having the homeowners flags was a game changer to be able to use the less busy beach. Thanks for a great visit! We are already looking forward to coming back.

Do yourself a favor and book this cottage. Went with 2 kiddos and everything was perfect, from the house itself to the fixtures to the pool to the location to the beach.
Everything felt just right. The kids loved the bunk beds. I loved the design of the house. The pool is pure luxury.
The support was soooo responsive and friendly.

We had a lovely stay at the townie 2 cottage in Union Pier! The highlights were the heated pool, hot tub and being so close to the beach! We also loved how the house was laid out and decorated. We had everything we needed and the hosts are very responsive. From Google Reviews
