Our recent leadership retreat at this beautiful seaside retreat was an absolute delight. The home’s picturesque views of the harbor and surrounding area provided a serene and inspiring backdrop for our team discussions and bonding activities. The balance between classic charm and updated conveniences made our stay both comfortable and nostalgic, offering a unique experience that catered to various preferences within our group. The well-equipped kitchen, spacious living, and dining areas were perfect for our group activities, and the variety of bedrooms on different floors allowed for a mix of privacy and communal space. The cozy atmosphere, especially by the fireplace, and the peaceful porch made for delightful moments of relaxation and connection. The property’s character and modern amenities created an atmosphere that was both inviting and practical, contributing to an exceptional retreat experience. Highly recommended for those seeking a harmonious blend of classic allure and contemporary comfort. the owners’ warm hospitality and attentiveness added an extra layer of comfort to our stay. Their care and responsiveness to our needs were exceptional, making our experience all the more enjoyable. Their dedication truly enhanced our retreat, ensuring a seamless and pleasant stay throughout.
