Long weekend stay
This place is a gem! Tracey is very communicative and helpful, it's very clean, and has everything that we needed. I especially liked the view, the front patio and bluff furniture, the Netflix, and the comfortable bedding. The neighborhood is quiet and relaxing. We would return here. The only negative experience was road construction blocking the quickest way to get to Colchester Beach and Garfield's, but that is no fault of the host. I think it's supposed to wrap up mid-summer of 2024.

Quiet on the lake
Very clean and quiet place to stay. Kitchen was nicely set up and separate dining room for 4. Comfy beds. Stairs to upper bedroom were steep so not good for kids.
