We truly enjoyed staying at this wonderful home. The location was beautiful and tucked away in the woods, and very private. We had all the things we needed in the kitchen to enjoy many meals, including fresh crab! Our one pet is an elderly Schnauzer and he enjoyed roaming the grassy areas. We would definitely like to return again! Pam and Byron

The place was very charming. The views were amazing and it was fun to just watch the boats go by. We even got to see a few turkeys roaming the yard. Definitely would stay here again

Great hidden spot just up the hill from the ferry terminal. The view is amazing. It’s not fancy, but had everything we needed. I would definitely stay there again. One spot that could stand improvement is the extremely short shower head. There are very affordable, easy to install options that would make the shower taller rather than shorter.
