We do not mean vacuuming or dusting but a general putting away, putting pillows back, removing collected rocks, sticks and shells, that kind of thing. We are proud of our team of outstanding Bowen housekeepers… showing gratitude for their good work is appreciated. Linens - no need to strip beds. Towels - damp towels and used cloths can be tossed in the shower. Kitchen: Please wash the glasses, dishes, pots and pans
and put them away. Remove any leftover food from the fridge. Please make sure all bags are tied tightly to prevent spills and leave recycling and organics separated. Thank you.

Amazing place for a peaceful getaway. Only five mins drive into the little town. Love the layout of the house and if it was warmer the bbq area would have been lovely to use. There is about 30 steps up to the property as it is on the top level of the house, so if you have large suitcases or elderly that could be an issue.

Great place.

The suite was nice and comfy. We visited on a cold February weekend so the heated floors in the bathroom and bedroom was very welcomed. The rare snow was made the place magical. If it had been warmer, sitting on the deck with steam running near by would have been very relaxing. A note — the island is basically a mountain so access to the suite is a climb up a sidewalk and steps.
