Very family friendly place to spend a week or more up north. So much to do in the surrounding area for young and old alike. We loved the private beach and the playground a few steps from the house. We would love to come back!

We enjoyed our stay. The house was very charming. We enjoyed the front porch and the private beach. One minor request would be to upgrade the mattresses. Overall a great place to stay!!

Roomy house

Very roomy, great location. Nice to have 3 bathrooms. Kitchen was well supplied with pans, plates, etc., could use basic ingredients such as salt, pepper though. Nice to have beach access but a bit early in the summer for that, and we had rainy weather.
