Great location
Absolutely loved the house and the location. There were decks across the entire front of the property making for a great spot to hang out. We were visiting family and it was in the perfect location. We were here for a week and I definitely would stay here again.

Lovely home, lovely spot.
This is a thoughtfully designed, decorated and appointed home. The views from the expansive decks and even from inside of the house are splendid and serene. The owner was helpful and responsive at every stage.
