We had an awesome time staying here. They were so welcoming and the directions were super easy and straightforward for the cottage. They gave us a plethora of food options in this book that was super helpful with choosing food. But overall was a great experience and will definitely be staying there again!

This was a cute little cottage right on the water. Was perfect for our lacrosse tournament this past weekend and we would stay here again if we ever come back to DE for a tournament. Realxing evenings sitting by the firepit watching the water.
