Sorry Dogmum, I haven't been on this site enough lately to have seen your post. I can give you pretty accurate and recent intelligence on views from the Family Cottages.
If you really want the best view of the ocean from a Family Cottage, ask Diane or Nadia to put you in Room 170 or 171 (tell them I told you to!). Room 168 and 169 also are high enough up to give you a view but the trees in front are starting to block the full view. But 168 and 169 have recently been renovated and have nicer bathrooms (granite, more storage, updated tiling) as well as trundle beds in the kids rooms than any other cottages. So it's a toss up in my mind.
We have friends who are there now and staying in a cottage. I may soon be able to give you another perspective on whether they prefer the updates or the view (they've stayed in 169 several times before).
