Excellent place

The house was beautiful and larger than expected. I was able to park my 23’ center console at the dock each night.

A Little Piece of Heaven

It was cool to be able to stay in a house that was built so long ago and that has so much history about it. When you walk in it gives you that feeling I could stay here forever.
