Perfect Family Vacation Spot
Great location. Perfect for a family vacation. Right on a quiet cove. Plenty of room inside and outside the house for activities. Centrally located for day trips to Freeport, Booth Bay, and etc. The heated swimming pool was a big hit. Contacted owner about an error on pool heater and the issue was resolved within a hour. Top notch experience all around.
