Wonderful Home

My family and I had another wonderful stay at this home. This is our fourth visit to this property, and each time we come, we are amazed by the stunning views and beauty of the area. The owners pay great attention to detail, ensuring that the guest experience is exceptional. Each visit, we notice improvements to the home. This time around, we enjoyed the new sectional in the living room, which was a big hit! This home is well-appointed, clean, comfortable, and inviting. We have made fantastic memories here during our many visits, and we can't wait to return. Thank you Cussens for being outstanding hosts!

A wonderful place for our annual family bay-cation. The house was everything we had expected. The number of steps, however, was a challenge.

Enjoyable

We had a great time. My husband and son fished on the pier in the morning and night. We were able to relax and enjoy time together as a family. The property manager was very helpful and quick to answer any questions. We had an issue with lights on the pier and the next morning he had an electrician out there to fix it. We definitely enjoyed our stay!!!

Peace by the Bay

We are repeat guests. The hosts are excellent and their home is comfortable, quiet, well-equipped, and in a beautiful location. Easy access to groceries, restaurants, cafes, shops, and bookstores. The full pier is great for boat access and for watching the sunset.

Grandkids

We booked this property so our grandchildren could experience all the bay has to offer. Their ages 6-12. They fished and crabbed until they feel asleep exhausted. They had a blast. The big second floor was perfect for them. They would love to return.
