Although our stay was only 3 nights, we had a fantastic time at the private waterfront cottage, Raven’s Nest. We especially enjoyed taking advantage of the outdoor spaces and eating areas. It was so relaxing sitting outside-the water views are exceptional and it is so peaceful and calm there. The deck is a fabulous place to view the sunrise or to star gaze!Gary, our gracious host was accessible and knowledgeable. While new to the area he pointed us to great eating establishments, as well as the nearby organic market, unique shops, sightseeing, and hiking trails. It was nice to come back after a day of hiking and just relax on the deck. We highly recommend Raven’s Nest and hope to return someday. We reflected, renewed and recharged by the sparkling water.
