Whimsy & Ocean Air

We loved The Shrimp! The location can't be beat. Two beaches are within easy walking distance. And the house itself is charming, distinctive and filled with art. The owners were responsive and helpful. We hope to stay again and soon!

Perfect family vacation!

The Shrimp was a perfect little getaway for a family of four! It has a great location on a wonderful street. Steve was a wonderful host and very easy to communicate with. My family can’t wait to come back next year!

Great stay in Centerville

Wonderful stay at “The Shrimp” cottage. One of the best streets in Centerville. The beach down the street is a hidden gem. Great cottage for small kids- our 6 and 4 year old had endless fun exploring crabs at the little beach in the back of the house. Bring your paddle board!
