Family Getaway

Beautiful view and right on the water. Enjoyed the grounds, especially Jeff's perch. Nice just relaxing on the patio or doing some Kayaking!

Perfect View

Beautiful property, with a envious view of the river and bay. The pictures are great, but watching the different weather systems come in, and the changing view hourly makes it almost worth the trip alone. Secluded, but not too far away from essentials.

Quaint cottage on the water

Very charming, 100+ year old house, right on the water. We stayed with our two kids and they loved spending time in the two enclosed screen rooms. Owners were absolutely fantastic - the internet didn't work the first day and Jeff was there within 5 minutes to fix it. The only downside is that one of the two bathrooms is in the kitchen, so if you are staying in the master bedroom, you have to walk downstairs and through the living room in order to access the bathroom.
