This rental was amazing all around. The host contacted us before, during and after our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. The rental was supplied above and beyond what we expected, especially the kitchen! Everything was clean and the property well maintained. We loved the secluded area with a beautiful view of the bay. There was plenty of wood supplied for the fire pit, which we used every night. We would give a 10 star, if it were available. Hope to return someday.

This place was everything we hoped for and more. We arrived to a spotless, well-stocked home and a helpful welcome guide that made settling in a breeze. Our mornings started with coffee on the deck watching the water, our evenings ended with gorgeous sunsets, and everything in between was filled with relaxing and games. Dana was wonderful to work with and clearly takes great pride in the property. We didn’t want to leave and we definitely want to come back!

The location of this home is gorgeous! Right on the water with a large deck to enjoy and lots of nice, heavy adirondack chairs. The kitchen was well-stocked and with quality items. The knives were actually sharp! The towels were plentiful for our larger group. The welcome email was informative without being too wordy and included answers to any questions we had. The owners were super communicative and quick to respond leading up to our stay and during our stay. The bunk house was a fun separate space for our teens to enjoy. Would absolutely stay here again!

So many details were taken care of, like the Keurig coffee cups, kitchen supplies, and paper towels. Very clean home with an extremely attentive host who was easy to reach both before and during our stay. Our family would highly recommend this spectacular property, situated right on the water.
