The property is clean and beautiful. We just happened to be their season opening customer and ran into a bit of heating issue. But they resolved it right away and compensated with flexible checkout. Very friendly and responsive.

The house is clean and comfortable for a family or group — we had seven adults. We appreciated the large couch and dining tables for socialising inside. The kitchen was stocked practically for cooking up meals. The deck chairs outside on the water are a gem for enjoying the location. Even though close to a main road and bridge, it is quiet and has a neighbourhood feel. The caretaker and house owner were both helpful and friendly. This property has multiple units, which is great if you’re travelling with other families or a large group.
