It was the perfect location for our family visit. We used the standup paddle board and kayaks to float across the cove to visit family in another house. The upstairs deck provided shelter from the rain and a great view through the trees. This was our second time staying in this house and the newly finished basement gave us more room to spread out.

The house was lovely, very clean and as advertised. All of our questions were promptly answered. Our experience was very positive and I’d recommend the home.
