Wonderful Stay with a great host

Went for a girls wine weekend. The house was great with relaxing waterfront views and location to wineries. Tessa was communicative and pointed us in the right direction for restaurant suggestions. Her neighbors were friendly too giving us some history of the area.

This property was excellent! Looks brand new, incredibly clean, and well appointed with anything you could think of. The house is steps away from the water's edge and has great outdoor amenities like a grill, fire pit and seating. The town is quaint and there are some great local restaurant options close by. Highly recommend!

Just perfect

Relaxing, great location. Would have spent more time outside on the deck if it wasn’t for the rain and wind, but what can you expect for October. Still comfortable inside though. Thx for the use of your cottage.
