We were not ready to leave!

This was the perfect getaway! To start, Elyse was always ready to answer any questions I had about the property and any other questions I had. She is very helpful. The instructions for check in were very clear and easy to follow. When we got there, driving up and seeing the river was so exciting. The cottage was so warm and welcoming. Perfect space for us two. We loved sitting on the patio and listening to the birds and the water from the river. We were so relaxed here. The crab shack was so adorable. Everything was so thoughtfully placed. The neighbors were so nice. It was all around an amazing stay. We can not wait to come back and celebrate again next year!

Valentine's Getaway

I returned to P&E for a micro getaway with my husband. And it was just MAGICAL. The tranquility you'll find at this property is unmatched. The views are incredible and the accessibility to amazing food is invaluable. You won't find a more gracious and accommodating host than Elyse. If I needed anything she was so fast to respond! Book with them! You won't be disappointed.
