Hidden gem

This cozy cottage was exactly what our family needed for rest and rejuvenation during our visit to our son at the University of Delaware. Nicely stocked, very clean, great decor, beautiful yard and patio, plus nearby fishing for our youngest son. Highly recommend!

Wonderful cottage!

Had a wonderful stay at this cottage for a girls’ weekend! The cottage is cozy and very well appointed. The decor was lovely, and the place had everything we needed. It sits in a creek that attracted ducks and a blue heron. We hung out, and explored the towns if Havre de Grace and North East. Rain ruined our plan to kayak. We had a great time, and would stay again in the future!

Hot

It was hot the week we stayed, and the ac could not keep up. and the creek was too low to kayak to the bay. It was a short walk to the beach which was nice. All and all it was a nice stay.
