We cannot say enough wonderful things about this beautiful house--it is magical! The views from the back porch, the comfortable elegance of the interior, the many small touches like gas fireplace and plush throw blanket, quality dishes and decorative touches throughout, a beautiful kitchen, truly top-of-the-line bathrooms--three of them!--and a location to die for. The house was impeccably clean, through and through, with elegant and high-quality decor. The check-in process was lovely--such fun to meet the owner and see the pride he takes in this amazing house of his. Great communication, very accomodating, and he even left a delicious bottle of French wine for our arrival--such a nice touch! The house is exactly as pictured but even better, for the setting is unbelievably terrific and adds so much to the stay. Champagne in Adirondack chairs out on the dock at sunset is a must! Seeing the views of Gibson Island and the lighthouse out back, roasting marshmallows in the firepit, playing cards on the porch, stringing hammocks in the shade beneath the trees, enjoying the owners' double-kayak to explore the area, playing lots of games of chess on the beautiful set in the living room...I could go on and on. Even the drive up to the house is sublime--you go to the end of a road, through a small arch of trees, to an open expanse with a stunning view and beautiful houses all perched right on the water--it makes us smile every time we come back to the house from being out! This is definitely a Five-Star-Property, start to finish, and if you have a chance to book it, I most highly recommend it--you'll be glad you did! We have stayed in many vrbo's in this country and all over Europe, and this rates as one of the best we've seen. We love this house and would stay here again at the earliest opportunity--truly wonderful!!!! Thank you so much for our stay--we could not have hoped for anything better, and are so incredibly grateful for our time here--worth every penny!
