Haustierfreundliches Smith Island Cottage mit Golfwagen!

Mark, thank you so much for your kind review! We're delighted you enjoyed your stay at Castaway Cottage and found everything clean, convenient, and well equipped for your visit. Hearing that you'd like to come back is one of the best compliments we could receive. We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us, and we'll be looking forward to welcoming you back to Smith Island!

Thank you, Laura! We're so glad Castaway Cottage was a comfortable home base for your family's Smith Island adventure. It sounds like you made the most of your visit, from exploring the island by golf cart to spotting pelicans on Capt. Mark's tour through the marshes. Thanks, too, for sharing a few helpful tips for future guests. Smith Island moves at its own pace, and a little planning helps make the experience even more enjoyable. And yes, the flies can definitely be part of island life during the warmer months, so we're glad they didn't keep your family from enjoying everything else the island has to offer. It was a pleasure hosting your family, Laura. We'd love to welcome you back anytime!

Heather, thank you so much for sharing this thoughtful review. We’re delighted you and your husband chose Castaway Cottage for your first visit to Smith Island, and even more so that it felt like a perfect getaway. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the cottage’s comfort and the little touches that help guests settle in easily, along with having the golf cart and bicycles available to explore the island. Smith Island has a way of slowing things down, and it sounds like you were able to take in everything from the friendly faces along the way to those beautiful sunsets—and of course, the crab cakes and Smith Island cake are hard to beat. We truly appreciate you staying with us, and we’d love to welcome you back whenever you’re ready for another island escape.

From the Owner: "Thanks so much, Millicent! I’m glad you enjoyed your time on Smith Island and that the golf cart helped you get around. It really is a game-changer for exploring. And I appreciate the honest feedback, too. The island’s charm comes with a few pesky bugs now and then, and stocking up ahead of time is definitely smart advice. Thanks again for staying with us, and you’re always welcome back for another island escape!"

From the owner:“Thanks so much, Karen! You summed up Smith Island perfectly—simple, kind, and calming. So glad you enjoyed the slower pace, good food, and laid-back island life. We’d love to have you back anytime you're ready to unwind again!”

From the owner: "Thanks so much, Michael! I’m so glad you felt at home the moment you walked in—that’s exactly what I hope for every guest. And I love that you appreciated the color scheme! The pink gives Castaway its personality. I'll pass along your compliments to the cleaning partner! You’re welcome back anytime for another cozy island stay!"

From the Owner: "Thanks so much, Kara! I’m so happy you and your crew (two-legged and four-legged!) enjoyed your stay. It sounds like you soaked in everything that makes the island so special: peace, quiet, and kind folks all around. I’m really glad the cottage worked out so well for your group, and I’d love to welcome you all back anytime you need another relaxing escape!"

From the owner: "Thank you so much, Carrie! I’m so glad the cottage was a perfect fit for your anniversary trip and your first visit to Smith Island. I’ll be sure to share your kind words with Laura—she’s always happy to help and truly cares about making each guest feel at ease. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the cozy charm of the home, the friendly neighbors, and the peaceful scenery that makes this place so unique. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!"

From the owner: "Thank you, Karen! I’m so glad this little island gave you the chance to truly unplug. It really is a different kind of getaway—no frills, just comfort, good food, and kind people. You captured it perfectly. We’d love to have you back anytime you need another break from the noise."

From the Owner: "Thank you so much, Suzanne! I’m so glad you and your furry sidekick enjoyed the cottage, and I have to laugh… that doggie towel has definitely saved the day for a few adventurous pups, but rolling in a rotten duck egg might be a new one! I’m happy the place felt homey and welcoming for both of you, and I appreciate your kind words. You’re welcome back anytime for another (hopefully less messy!) island stay."

From the owner: "Dana, we are delighted that you loved your stay and glad you were able to get to participate in all of those activities! I'll pass along your compliments! We are fortunate and thankful to have a great team!"

From the owner: "Catherine, I'm so sorry to hear that your trip to the island had the unfortunate timing to experience the myriad of unforeseen weather conditions from the tropical storm that flooded North Carolina, combined with the Supermoon, which caused extreme high and low tides; and which limited your ability to have fun. I hope you'll give the island another try and we would be grateful to have you back.

From the owner: "Kate, we were so grateful that you chose us for your stay. I'm glad you enjoyed your visit and that we were able to provide the amenities that were helpful to you! Hope to have you back!"

From the owner: "Holly, your review made my day—thank you! I’m so glad Castaway Cottage and Smith Island gave you exactly the break you were looking for, now that you finally made it there! We love that you brought your pup along too—this place was made to be shared with furry family members! I’ll definitely pass the kind words on to the Captain of Island Belle (he really is the best, isn’t he?). Can’t wait to welcome you back this summer!"

Thank you so much for staying with us!! We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

From the owner: "Thank you for staying with us, Jerry! I hope you had a peaceful and comfortable visit. If there’s ever anything we can improve to make a future stay even better, we’d truly appreciate the feedback. You're always welcome back for another island getaway."
