It is Pier Joy!
We had a wonderful stay at Pier Joy and really enjoyed the area. The view out of the back of the house is gorgeous and the dock is in very good shape. We wanted a low key quiet get away and this home and area did just that. There were good restaurants near by. The grocery stores lacked, but we also did our research on that prior and went prepared. Joan was extremely welcoming to our family and our 2 dogs. Overall the house was very clean and well kept. However, I do think the floors could use a heavy mopping and the staircase banister needs a good wipe down and secured. It was loose. The kitchen is well stocked, but the pots and pans leave room for improvement. There was also only one small cookie sheet. The drip coffee maker could also be replaced. There were no coffee filters. There were plenty of plates, silverware, cups and mugs. The beds were a bit stiff and I think the pillows, master bedroom bedding and all the pillows in all bedrooms need replaced. They were not very clean when I took the pillow cases off. The front right bedroom also didn’t have a mattress cover. The living room furniture was okay. The small arm chair is dirty and definitely needs replaced. There is a small gold colored sofa that didn’t appear clean so we didn’t use it. The back desk was very welcoming, but I think with summer coming the cushions need cleaning. The fire pit was awesome! I would stay again, but hope some of the needed improvements are made for the price point.

Peaceful Perfection
Fantastic! Two girl friends and I stayed for a weekend getaway. The house is lovely with multiple nooks for reading, or snuggling up and talking. The views were gorgeous looking out on the water. Joan was very responsive with my questions, everything was just as described. We had a wonderful, relaxing weekend. Thank you so much! We would love to book again!!

Wintry getaway
Even on a cold and windy weekend, Pier Joy did not disappoint! The house was spotless and cozy. The kitchen was spacious. The views were great even from the inside. Just what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle. Can’t wait to return in a warmer month!

A few days away!
Our family needed a few days away and enjoyed this beautiful home on the water. What is it about a water view that helps to calm the soul. Pier Joy was beautifully decorated with a well stocked kitchen. The master had amazing views of the water from the sunroom and huge bathroom. Great outdoor space and A+ service from the owner. We walked, relaxed, played games, drove around and enjoyed seeing all of the boats. Shady Side had that small hometown feel that reminded us of a different time. People were so friendly and welcoming. Our stay was just what we needed, and we hope to visit again.
