Remarkable homestay experience

This exceptional property was our best homestay experience yet across several states and countries. The unit has so many customized features that make it stand out, from the fire pit (fire already built) and sauna (water bucket already filled) to the kitchen and bedrooms, where no detail has been missed. The owners were extremely proactive and responsive throughout our stay, and we look forward to booking again soon.

Wonderful fall week!

We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful spot for a week away in the fall! The owners thought of everything!!! The screened in porch with fireplace and swing daybed was our favorite spot - and the outdoor sauna was heaven! The kitchen was well stocked and we were greeted by homemade muffins and fresh wildflowers upon arrival. A lovely touch. We will be back for sure!

Superlatives are insufficient…

We’ve just returned from a memorable stay in this stellar house.Thoughtfully designed for universal access, this is a house that radiates charm and ease with exceptional attention to detail ( fully stocked coffee bar, plush bath robes, comfy beds, extra blankets…) We were treated to lovely Christmas decorations, treats and extra touches that were generous beyond description. Karen and Mark, their lovely ‘Off the Charts Stays’ is our favorite VRBO. Ever. Anywhere.

A Perfect Family Getaway with Exceptional Hospitality

Our recent stay at this property was a last-minute booking, but it turned out to be a wonderful family getaway. The hosts were incredibly warm and responsive, making us feel welcome right from the start despite the short notice. Their attention to detail in the house was evident, with every item thoughtfully arranged to ensure our comfort. The cleanliness of the home was outstanding, creating a relaxing and hygienic space for our family. A particularly thoughtful gesture was the provision of toys for the kids, which added a personal touch and made our stay even more special. We're deeply grateful for the exceptional hospitality we received at such short notice, making our impromptu family holiday memorable. This place is highly recommended for anyone looking for a perfect family retreat, and we eagerly look forward to returning.

Karen & Mark are fabulous hosts! They are thoughtful, kind & responsive. The cottage exudes their loving touch. The back yard is private & peaceful. Our doggie happily kept the squirrels in check. I've looked at hundreds of pet friendly vacation homes over the years & this one is without a doubt the nicest I've come across!

Getting ready for the wedding

This home was the perfect place for us to calmly relax for a few days before our son’s wedding in Stevensville. The hosts were incredibly thoughtful and accommodating. The house is lovely, tidy, and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is well-equipped, the bedrooms and bathrooms are comfortable, neat and clean. We loved the backyard, the spacious screened-in back porch, and sitting on the front porch enjoying the beautiful garden. Nice quiet neighborhood in a great location!

Did we have to leave??

This was by far one of my most favorite rental stays of my life. The home was beautifully landscaped, so clean, and we truly did not want to check out! The decor and amenities were so we thoughtful and really enhanced our stay. You can really tell that Mark and his family have put a lot of consideration and love into the house, continuously making it even better for upcoming guests. It is on a nice quiet road, close to a small beach that was perfect to walk our dogs. My only complaint is that I couldn’t stay longer! Hoping to make it back for another trip in the future. Thank you again!

This house is perfection!

Had a wonderful mini vacation with my dog on Kent Island. The house and outdoor amenities were fantastic! We loved all the different outdoor sitting areas including the porch swing (with gas fireplace nearby), bar with service window from kitchen, relaxing front porch, and beautiful backyard seating sets. And I highly recommend a morning sauna..so refreshing. The landscaping is beautiful and well maintained, including several bird feeders. We enjoyed the neighborhood with several small private beaches, and were still close enough for short drives to other parks, restaurants, wineries, etc. I can't recommend this house enough!

Impeccable!!!

Beautiful home with LOTS of attention to detail. The backyard was a beautiful oasis and we LOVED the “swing bed” on the screened-in porch. Mark and Karen add lots of fine touches to make your stay special. Plenty of room for two, cozy for four, and comfortable for four legged friends with the fenced in back yard. Quiet and private with a short 10 minute drive to town. Can’t wait to return!

Perfection

This weekend, we had the pleasure of staying at Mark and Karen's place, and it was truly immaculate and thoughtfully designed. They’ve considered every detail, providing everything you could possibly need for a fantastic stay.One of the main reasons we chose this house was to have a gathering with our brother, who uses a wheelchair. This house checks all the boxes for accessibility. The doors throughout the home are wide enough to easily accommodate a larger wheelchair, including the doorways to the bedrooms and bathrooms. The bathrooms are also spacious enough to allow for smooth navigation Every part of this house is perfect for someone in a wheelchair, with plenty of space to move around comfortably. Both bedrooms offer ample room, though the front bedroom would have been especially ideal if my brother had stayed the night.Upon entering the home, we were welcomed into the cozy living area, featuring a lovely gas fireplace and incredibly comfortable seating—the perfect spot to unwind. The kitchen was a highlight, with the most charming coffee bar stocked with all the essentials to craft the perfect cup of coffee. It also boasted a sleek gas stove and plenty of space around the bar, ideal for enjoying happy hour with friends. The back porch was delightful. Although the weather was damp and chilly when we were there I could easily imagine spending hours out there on a nicer day. It was a dream, complete with comfy seating, a fireplace, a TV and a gorgeous table.
