beach cottages
Shore rental homes
Beach cottages are small, informal houses located near or on a beach, typically used as vacation homes or seasonal rentals.
They tend to be modest in size and construction compared to beach houses, often featuring a casual, weathered aesthetic that suggests proximity to salt air and sand.
We rented a beach cottage for the week.
The term evokes a simpler, more rustic coastal getaway than a full-sized residence.
