Great trip! Pictures make the cottage look smaller than it actually is! Our family loved it. It was lovely that they provided bathroom supplies like extra toothbrushes and toothpaste, as well as shower supplies. Thanks for having us

Charming stay on the water
Great, cozy, quiet little spot! Perfect for 4 adults and a baby. My 1.5 year old loved exploring the deck with an amazing water view, and gained lots of confidence navigating the little steps throughout the house and worked on her balance. Kitchen was well appointed and suited our needs. Would stay here again!

Can’t say enough about how nice this place is. We had quick friendly responses from owners. Very clean and the water front view was excellent. Highly recommended
