Lake cottage

We had a good time,great weather. The property details need updating. We had no idea that there were two beds in the basement until the septic alarm went off at 1:00 am and we had to go down there. We could have used more towels other than one per person for four days and only one hand towel. The cleaning lady could do a better job, it's not gross.But it could be cleaner. Nice location, beautiful view. Overall it was a nice place.

Great stay!

We enjoyed a short stay at this cabin. There was plenty of room for the five of us and the view was unparalleled. We liked that the cabin was just out of town, which added to its charm and sense of “getting away.” We loved the view and found that it was tranquil and quiet in the neighborhood. The host provided clear instructions and was easy to work with.

OK But Could Be Much More

The backyard and deck are wonderful, as is the great room area. The rest of the cottage is pretty shabby and was not adequately cleaned. The refrigerator was dirty and there was grease on the range, range hood, and backsplash. The shower was slippery. The size of the cottage is fine for two people but would be tight for more. A good scrubbing and investment in some updates would go a long way towards turning this property into the gem it has the potential to be.

Bravo!

We were simply looking for some much needed family time and we got so much more. We had no pressure and did as we pleased for three glorius days. We made memories, we enjoyed each others company and simply relaxed. I don't know the last time I just felt so peaceful. I thank you for that. I had the opportunity to just enjoy my family, to cook for them and just plain love them with no outside noise.

Beautiful property and amazing views of the bay

Very thankful we chose this cabin for a weekend birthday celebration instead of our usual campsite. Upon entering, you are immediately blown away by the stunning view of the bay. The cabin is so cozy and cute and unbelievably stocked with everything you could possibly need and more. Very easy check-in and check-out. All the rooms were so accommodating. Loved watching the pelicans and the waves. Highly recommend staying at this cabin!

Nice cabin on the water

We stayed here because we had to take our pets out of the house to get our floors refinished. The host was gracious to let us check in early. I was impressed by the cleanliness and well stocked kitchen. Loved being right on the water with access to the bay. Just be careful walking down the rocks as it was slippery after it rained. We saw all kinds of water fowl and even eagles in the tree right on the property! I would definitely stay here again!

Eagle point

It was not unusual to have multiple eagles up in the tree at the same time. The most we saw were two adults and three young being taught how to fish. Your place was warm and cozy. A terrific spot to get away for peace and quiet. We enjoyed our stay immensely thank you very much.

Nice place to stay

Only thing i would say is negative it states it sleeps 8 but from what I see it really only sleeps is 5 with 2 people in 2 of the beds maybe 6 if you want to sleep on the couch. Other then that house is a good place to stay.

Fire on the Bay

Our stay on the property was lovely for the most part. It was important we were able to bring our pooch. The fire pit right over the water was magical. Just warm enough to hang out into the night. The yard, while not fenced, was large enough to set up a tether so our boy could roam a bit but stay safe. We showed up right after a Bay Fly hatch, which wasn't entirely pleasant. But they don't bite & were more a nuicance than a danger. and our

Cozy Cottage

We had a very pleasant stay @ Riley's Point. The cottage was tidy and very comfortable. There were a few flies, but that did not spoil our stay. The cabin is somewhat secluded, the neighborhood is very quiet and dark. Perfect for stargazing! Very pleased with our stay!!
