We really enjoyed Renee and Eric’s property. It was very clean and they were great hosts. The space was so cozy and relaxing. We also liked spending time at their adirondak chairs by the water. The property is in a great location and we walked everywhere! We are already planning our next trip back to the island.

Wonderful home away from home

The home was exactly what we needed for a relaxing week on the island! It is such a comfortable place, clean, everything you need, and so close to everything in town while still being "away from it all".

Our family had a great time. Despite a new structure blocking the view of the water, the home is well equipped with anything anything you need for cooking, the front porch is great to relax on with a cup of coffee, and the back yard is quiet and relaxing as well
