Great Cottage Near Northport

The house is great. The pictures are accurate and it’s overall very comfortable. The yard and beach are nice especially with little kids. The beach is small but perfect to contain a roaming 4 year old. Quick walk into town and very very quiet.

Great Place

We totally enjoyed our stay here. Everything was just great. The only thing, is the coffee pot should probably be replaced, as it took quite a while to fill. The view, was just so beautiful and the sunsets in October were awesome. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Beautiful View close to town

Our stay was great, close to everything yet far enough away not to be bothered. IF I had to make one complaint it's that the lawn could have been mowed to keep the bugs down a bit. Overall I still give 5 stars.
