About the host
Hosted by Michele Matsuk
We are originally from Ventnor, NJ a small beach community so this island is almost a remake of our home town.
What makes this property unique
Instead of beach view our home is a treehouse! Built with love and lots of natural elements. Mostly of our own creation. We love to make and decorate to suit us which makes our cottage a homey vacation.
