Quiet, comfortable, clean. Beautiful sunsets
A perfect two weeks.
A great place to relax, bike, and kayak.
Our stay at Cloud Nine was better than expected. The house is very comfortable and the setting is so relaxing. We especially enjoyed the screened porch and it's views of the water. I was so pleased to have a well stocked kitchen, especially the baking pans! The dock was perfect for kayak launching. Lori was so easy to communicate with, and always available to help if needed. We are looking forward to another vacation at Cloud Nine next February.
So glad that you enjoyed your stay at Cloud 9 and look forward to having you again.
very spacious and great grounds
Perfect for out annual bachelor college re-union
Enjoyed our stay
Our family from Oregon came out to visit and the house was just the right size for the 10 of us. It had everything we needed and the dock was an added bonus for the kayaks we brought. The place could use a bit of upgrading, beds were a bit hard, but all in all, it was great. Everyone had a good time!
A perfect place
A perfect place for bicycling, boating, fishing and sitting.
Great Place... with lots of character!!
The place is old school beach cottage. Very clean... and perfect for a week or a couple of days. My brother and I, with our college aged sons, went down for a long weekend of fishing. Lori was great to work with, and she has a great place to get the best clams. Will definitely rent again.
