The property and room is beautiful. We had a private deck with an amazing view. But the walls are thin. I was disappointed that we could hear our neighbors so well in our room. Missing the little things you expect in a property of this caliber. No full length mirror. No coffee in the room. We were not the only ones waiting for mediocre coffee at 7:00.

What a beautiful piece of property. Our view was spectacular. It was so peaceful here. The place was so clean and new. We loved our morning/evening walks down to the water front and the Adirondack chairs were a perfect place to sit and take it all in. The heated pool was wonderful since our weather ended up be on the chilly side. A quick drive Camden which had very nice shops and excellent restaurants for all meals. I will be staying her again! My husband and I loved it!! I think we could have used a microwave a few times was the only thing we missed.

The most quaint spot you can imagine. I want to gatekeep but honestly it deserves all the praise! Outstanding service, clean amenities, quiet and serene space. Short drive into both Camden and rockland so not exactly walkable to restaurants and shops but the property makes the short drives worth it. So cozy and cannot say enough good things - just know you will have to drive to get to shops, restaurants, walkable streets etc.
