Perfect for a weekend getaway
We LOVED this place! Clean, quiet, peaceful, and roomy. The best part is the little thoughtful amenities, like sleeping masks. There were little things like that all over the place so you can tell that the owner really cares about their renters. We wil definitely be back!

Fantastic house!
The house has everything you'll need. And then some. My kids absolutely loved learning to kayak and fish and use a record player. We hung out and played card games and yard games. We rocked out to The Beach Boys and AC/DC. Toiletries were provided (even makeup remover!). My kids cried when we left and said they wanted to move there. Thanks for the lovely stay, Katie!
