Beautiful home

This beautiful home on Donegal Bay was perfect for our group! We loved being right on the beach with beautiful views. The home was beautiful inside! The kitchen was well stocked, bedrooms and 4 bathrooms were very nice and it was an ipen, airy feel. We loved hanging out on the porch and enjoyed the fire pit a few nights as well. I would highly recommend and we hope to stay again next year.

Driftwood

We love our stay at Driftwood. You cannot beat the location or the beach. It’s our second time and hope to return again. We came with two families with a set of grandparents ranging from 70s to 13s. Kids can bike to town. Everyone enjoyed the house!

Beach House

We had 7 adults in our group and there was room for everyone. Great location and had everything we needed. Nice sandy beach. I don’t know if the group before us left late and there wasn’t enough time to really clean between us and them, but house was not cleaned to expectations. Bathrooms had used bars of soap left in showers. Under the beds and couch looked like they hadn’t been cleaned for months. The downstairs bathroom was missing the door handle which we were not able to find. Upstairs bathroom was also missing the handle but were did find and were able to reattach. There were pictures of a shirtless male over two of the bathrooms with the word “yes.” Not sure if they were supposed to be there so just left those up. The screen back door was taped together, but it worked, so not a big deal. Deck had just been redone and was very nice.

Better than advertised

Better than advertised, quite impressed with the beach/ location and how it seems protected from the winds. No traffic as it is the first house on a dead end road. Well kept house and property, everything we needed was provided including great advise about the island. Plenty of room in the garage for bikes and scooter. Hope to stay again.

Beaver Island Getaway on Donegal Bay

The property was very easy to find and they as access to the island is only by ferry we got there early. They were very accommodating. The sunsets were beautiful. The property was in a great spot for swimming, biking, and kayaking. We would stay here again.

Perfect getaway

Absolutely beautiful beach house. The kitchen had everything you would need and more. Very clean, comfortable and accommodating for our girls getaway. We will diffidently come again. We were on bikes. It was rainy and cold for our ride back to the ferry. We had to go out of our way to take the trash to the bin. Sorry we had to leave it. This was our only problem. If weather would have been better it wouldn't been an issue.
