Cahoons Cottages

Low slung, weather beaten, and separated from the surf by a sand dune anchored tenuously with fragile scrub grasses, this cluster of simple cottages was built in stages between 1948 and 1968, in a postwar unpretentiousness many jaded travelers find endearing. Modern building codes prevent equivalent structures from being constructed directly on the dunes, so a stay here is a retro-charming kind of holiday: Expect not a smidgeon of grandeur in these bungalows awash with sun-bleached wooden porches, faux-wood paneling, and battered but comfy furniture. Of the 11 cottages, 2 are efficiencies and 1 is a bungalow. Each unit has its own kitchen and two, three, or four bedrooms.
