Anniversary stay

We had the best time! We enjoyed the quaint, clean and cute apartment! Our host was lovely and we will definitely be staying there again. We loved the landscaping and the full kitchen even though we didn’t use much of it! It was nice to make a full pot of coffee in the morning and the table and chairs outside so we could enjoy the view. I was a bit leery as we usually stay in a hotel but after reading the reviews, I knew it was the place to stay and I’m so glad we did! My husband kept commenting on how cute the place was.

Nothing short of Paradise!!

This place is a diamond in the ruff! From booking the trip until the moment we left the property, our hosts were truly amazing! The property is like a secret garden and off the busy beaten path. From the tranquility of the birds in the morning to the beautiful sunsets just a few steps down the road we could not have asked for a better place to stay! We were sad to leave butblook forward to the next stay at Jibberville. I promise you will not be disappointed!! What a great find💕 Thank younLaura and Jibber! Sending some of Wisconsin your way😉 Watch the mail!

Loved the place

Loved the location! After arriving, we parked our rental car, and walked everywhere (my legs are telling me about it now, LOL). The house was as described, plenty of room for the two of us, and clean. The owner stopped to visit a time or two, and provided some asked for info about local places to eat. The weather didn't really cooperate, but, not much any of us can do about that! If we make it back that way, will definitely check to see if this is available. I did wish for a pencil or pen in the house, as I would have written in the guest book if there had been!

Convenient and Economical Option on the Island

My son and I stayed here for a short father/son trip. Jibber the owner is easy to deal with, accommodating and very knowledgeable of the area so good for local recommendations. The property is pretty unique with a nice common garden area. Plants are abundant and the bird feeders attract a lot of birds. The space itself consists of a small room with a twin bed, living/dining/kitchen area with a fold out couch and a large bathroom area. The kitchen has most everything you need if you want to prepare meals in house. Beach towels, chairs, umbrella etc. are provided. This is not the place for you if you are looking for luxury but it you are looking for a comfortable and quiet stay conveniently located, keep this one in mind.
