Patos House Beach Cottage

Take a break and unwind at this peaceful beachfront cottage. The space This one bedroom cottage is part of a quiet, historic, family-owned beach resort. The 100-acre property encompasses woods, pasture, and a beautiful private beach. Perfect for a solo getaway, or a romantic retreat. Sleeps up to 4 people. Pet friendly. This unit is located right on the water, and features a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with a tub/ shower, a queen bed, and a fire stove. The rental price is for two people (adults or children). It is possible to add a third and fourth person on the full sized pullout couch for an extra charge of $20 per person, per night. Well-behaved pets (two maximum) are welcome for an additional fee. Three night minimum stay (except summer: see below). Patos House is named for nearby Patos Island, visible to the north. The family can remember when the Coast Guardsmen would take the lifeboat from Patos Light and visit the Inn to eat meals in the Lodge. The Space The cottage is simply but comfortably furnished. (Note: furnishings may not be exactly as pictured, as we sometimes replace or update items for improved guest comfort!) The fire stove gives a cozy ambience on a chilly day, although an electric heat pump is the primary heat source. We are intentional about not having wifi and TV and hope their absence will foster a peaceful and relaxing "unplugged" getaway. Cell coverage is usually adequate in the cabin but may be spotty. The kitchen has a stove, compact fridge, microwave, coffee maker (with reusable filter) and electric kettle. It is stocked with basic cookware and dishes but has no food nor condiments. There is one full bathroom with a tub/ shower. We provide liquid castile soap for body and hair, tissues and toilet paper. Please bring your own toiletries, hair dryer, etc. All linens needed for your stay are provided. Extra towels, etc. are available in the supply area next to the office. Thank you for not using our house towels on the beach; please bring your own beach towels. A Weber charcoal BBQ is provided; you'll need to bring lighter fluid and briquettes. Free firewood is available on a "help yourself" basis from the woodshed. Please enjoy beach fires; just make sure you build them on the beach gravel, below the high tide mark, and never burn driftwood. There are beach chairs and a picnic table in front of your cottage designated for your use.
