Great getaway

We enjoyed our stay, loved being by the water. Plenty of room for everyone (4 adults and 6 children). The grandkids enjoyed the beach and smores around the fire pit. We hope to come again!

We've come to this property for years. It is the right size for our group of friends. We enjoy the remoteness of it and appreciate the simplicity of the lodging while at the same time having what we need to accommodate all of us regarding bathrooms, kitchen facilities and living space.

Good Ladies Getaway

The gorgeous view and privacy made for a lovely stay. The house could have used a once over cleaning wise, but we were very comfortable and really appreciated the water filter. The internet was out the whole stay, but we had good cell service. Definitely would stay again.

Such a lovely and relaxing stay here! Beautiful and so private, the deck is fantastic and the views so great. Unfortunately the water was brown from the sink and there wasn’t enough filtered water for the three days we booked.

Pictures don’t do this property justice

The host is great and the home is clean stocked and is set up for up to 10 adults. But the best part is the location- the land this property sits on. You get your own personal bay, wildlife viewing deck, kayak launch, tide pools, and hiking paths. It is very remote and absolutely magical.
