Great Cottage Near Northport

The house is great. The pictures are accurate and it’s overall very comfortable. The yard and beach are nice especially with little kids. The beach is small but perfect to contain a roaming 4 year old. Quick walk into town and very very quiet.

Great Place

We totally enjoyed our stay here. Everything was just great. The only thing, is the coffee pot should probably be replaced, as it took quite a while to fill. The view, was just so beautiful and the sunsets in October were awesome. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Good location not cozy or clean.

There property is nicely located on the water and within walking distance from town. The amenities were limited. The house was full of cobwebs and dust. The furniture and kitchen were cheap and dirty. The communication was good.

Sons wedding

Excellent, everthing we needed plus. Wedding venue in the area. We needed a place for us, grandma. Our 2 adult kids with 2 granddaughters. Perfect setting, rooms were great. Easy in and out without huge requirements, be kind to all properties! Wish we had more down time to enjoy the spaces. One word of care, slippery tub in master bath. Nursing bruised pride.

Beautiful View close to town

Our stay was great, close to everything yet far enough away not to be bothered. IF I had to make one complaint it's that the lawn could have been mowed to keep the bugs down a bit. Overall I still give 5 stars.

Great Location

We had a great week here. The location is outstanding, and the house is in good condition. The views are incredible, and the windows in the house maximize these views. We really enjoyed the open kitchen, indoor gas fireplace, and all seasons porch. Some of the downsides include a broken clothes dryer; malfunctioning dishwasher; spotty internet, which affected the TV options; uncomfortable bed in the upstairs; and no kayaks/canoe/boat of any kind to take advantage of the location. Overall, this place was good and the location excellent, but it was not a great value.

The beach is under water and has been for quite some time. No beach access at all for kids. We still had a great time and the home is spacious and perfectly located close to town

We arrived in Northport for a family wedding. Loved the location and beauty of the house.

We loved the 2 sinks in the kitchen. We had enough room/space for all 9 of us. The ironing board came in helpful and we enjoyed the screen porch. The only things I would updated are the baths and add an “in ground” fire pit. Although we were happy to use the portable fire pit. Thank you! Very lovely stay. Will recommend!!
