What a fun little cottage, Such a relief from the heart of the valley. Enjoyed the massage chair and the great walks with the dogs on the beach. The hot tub jets were wonderful too! The fresh flowers were a nice touch too!

We had a great time! We chartered a sailboat last night for a 2 hour cruise just the 5 of us which was wonderful. We went through Pacific Yacht and charter which was not expensive but memorable. He even let the lads take the wheel which they will never forget.
