Amazing!

A perfect spot to disconnect from your daily grind. The house and the area were pristine. Very quiet and beautiful views. The restaurants had delicious food as well. The night sky was breathtaking since you are located away from all city lights. Absolutely amazing! We would definitely stay again but probably longer next time :) Also, communication with the leasing agent was top notch.

Amazing quaint cottage

We enjoyed our short stay here and we’re overall pleased with the accommodation. The only negative aspect was that the TV was not working properly as it was unable to acquire network in the living room and there were no paper towels as stated. The property was as advertised and we would stay again
