Our stay was great! The property is neat and clean and very well appointed!!! The beds are very comfortable, a huge plus for us!!! Communication with the host was very timely and she offered a lot of very good information and recommendations for shopping and dining.
This location was pet friendly. My dog had a blast. They even had dog bowls for her whenever we got there. The property is gorgeous right on a little cove, sat outside. Drink wine had a blast with our friends cooking in the big kitchen, sat and watched a movie on the comfortable couch rooms were gorgeous. Big bathtub took a big bubble bath in it. It was nice.

Thanks Tawnia. Glad you guys had a great time and your pup had fun too!
We had a wonderful stay at this property! The home was beautiful, exceptionally clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything needed to feel comfortable away from home. The house was very nicely decorated and created a warm, inviting atmosphere. The separate room was perfect for the young boys, giving them their own space, and there was plenty of parking, which made everything convenient.The owners paid attention to every detail. The house had games, cozy throw blankets, and even dishes for our fur baby, which was such a thoughtful touch. We were also pleasantly surprised with chips, candy, and beverages upon arrival, which made us feel very welcomed.I especially loved the bathtub, it was perfect for relaxing after a long day. There were also plenty of good books throughout the house, which made for enjoyable reading during our stay. The outdoor space was just as impressive, with plenty of seating and a quiet, peaceful setting. We even saw deer during our visit, which added to the charm.This is truly a must-book property. Our stay exceeded expectations, and we are already planning to return in the fall. Highly recommended!
