Amazing place to stay!!!

Extremely clean cottage right on the water with absolutely breathtaking views. The owner responds very fast to any questions and was great to work with. The house is very well equipped with pretty much anything you need. The private dock with lights for night was really nice too. We would definitely stay here again! Also nice that it's pet friendly so you can bring your dogs.

Great place for sunsets over the water

Just finished a week at this property and had a fantastic time. The house is small, but perfectly adequate for two or three people. The kitchen is surprisingly well equipped and the patio and fire pit right on the water were worth the price of admission by themselves. I also really appreciate the flexibility for pets.

Beautiful view and cozy cabin

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. It was so nice that the kitchen has updated appliances and was fully stocked. The rest of the cabin was also very clean and comfortable. We started our days sitting on the dock drinking our coffee and ending our days sitting on the dock watching the sunsets. We can’t wait to come back. Joanne

Perfect Sunsets.

We were looking for a private place with our pier to fish and crab from. This place was perfect. We caught nearly a bushel of crabs and a few fish. The sun sets right over the water. Had some good local fare. Built a fire and listened to the waves. It was a great getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
