Perfect for our baseball/beach vacation

Really enjoyed staying at Sarah’s cottage. Was perfect for our family as we had 3 couples. The room above the garage was fantastic for our teenager so he could have a dedicated space to himself. Kitchen well equipped with everything you could want for cooking. *suggestions include a drying rack for suits and towels and maybe a small vacuum to allow tenants to do a quick cleanup.

Fishing weekend

This property suited our needs well, for a family fishing weekend, with the boat. There was room in the driveway for vehicle and trailer, which was one of our main reasons for choosing it. The location was perfect for everything related to the stay, and to boat ramps, etc.
