The property is located on a very quiet wooded piece of land. The cottage is well taken care of and just what we were looking for. Only minutes from the ferry to Washington Island. The host provided all the details we needed for check in and check out and left us alone other than that. We didn't experience any issues while we stayed there. Everything we could want or need was there for us. We just brought some basic food & beverages. The WIFI was solid and there are 2 large screen TV's. Plenty of restaurants within 15 minutes. The stars at night were a highlight along with hummingbird shows during the day.
