We had a great stay! The house was cozy and perfect. We loved the sun room and multiple decks. The sunset on the deck was the perfect end to each day. The house was well maintained and had most essentials you need. Highly recommend! Plus the neighborhood was convenient with their gas station and coffee shop.

This home was in a lovely location. Our favorite was the screened in porch/sunroom for enjoying coffee while watching the sunrise. The week we were there was quite warm and the sliding doors and windows didn’t have screens. That made it a bit tricky with a dog but we made it work. Overall this was a clean, family friendly home and we would definitely stay again.

Beautiful Location and Well-Appointed Home

The home was in pristine condition. Very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the sun room, the deck and upper patio. Appliances and electronics were all up to date. Beautiful location in Colington Harbour. Would not hesitate to rent again!

This is my second stay in this house. It’s a very nice house with all the right amenities. Always clean. The screened porch is a wonderful place to sit with coffee in the morning, a book in the afternoon, and sunset views in the evening. Love the new patio furniture on the deck. I will be back!
