Gorgeous and secluded from the busy, sound of the waves to lull you into the afternoon nap, or deep restful sleep in the evening or a long walk on the beach. Cottage was really cozy and in the fall I can just imagine how cozy it would be with that fireplace on. We will stay there again.

Beautiful Spot!
We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful cottage! It was clean, private, and perfect for a relaxing getaway for me, my boyfriend, our three-year-old, my sister-in-law, her husband, and their dog. Donna was a great host and everything was just as described. We especially loved the quiet, beautiful scenery—it was the ideal spot to unwind and enjoy nature together. Highly recommend!

Room to breathe!
We enjoyed the peace and quiet after a busy day touring the Island. The Big Cottage is an older building with a cozy, rustic feel. Everything you could possibly need for your stay is provided. Just bring food and your personal belongings and you are set! The property is large, a long way from the road and very well maintained. Kids and dogs will love it!

Quiet and beautiful cottage
Very peaceful and relaxing, right by the ocean, beautiful sky at night to watch the stars. If you want to visit a little, the place is somewhat secluded so get ready to drive at least 30 minutes to do some sightseeing. The host is very nice and accommodating. Her cottage is fully equipped for anyone to spend an enjoyable week
The host is really
