My family and I stayed in this incredible location for a month. We went hiking, went to beaches, shopping, local restaurants, farmers markets, all close by and convenient.Out of all the places we have stayed in the world, this house had everything including the most equipped kitchen.In addition, the house has a wrap around deck where we spent countless hours relaxing and having epic dinners.The house accommodated my children as well as my grandchildren and on occasion the gran dog! We had a marvellous time and will definitely go back.

Lovely place

Great location. Enjoyed sitting out on deck w/view of river, comfortable beds and furniture. Only couple drawbacks: no condiments in refrigerator and a little uncomfortable parking right alongside the road. All in all though, would certainly stay again

Perfect little place

We came for 3 nights for a wedding, two couples and and a single. It is a cute modest home and very obviously loved by the owner. Perfect location near to town, beach and close by to the challenging Pulpit Rock trail. The house was spotlessly clean, ample soft towels and bedding, with cheerful pots of flowers on the deck. The owner supplied absolutely everything one might otherwise have forgotten to bring. Despite it being an extremely hot weekend, the small window-air conditioner did an excellent job at keeping the house cool. Great value for money and a great hostess!

Very cute home

Had a fantastic time at Pamela’s! Was a gorgeous property and perfect for staying close by to the wedding we were attending that weekend. It’s right across the bridge from town but we had a rental car so it was very easy getting around!
