The website photos do not do justice to how wonderful this property is. The photo albums in the house provided us with an deeper understanding of the family history behind this home and seeing the transformation over the many decades makes you truly appreciate the love and care that went in to this property. Very spacious kitchen with spectacular views to the water just crossed the street and very close to any activity you wish to do on the island. We enjoyed our stay so much so that we’re considering coming back in the near future.

I came to the island with family for a weekend visit. We were impressed by the property the moment we walked in the door. There was plenty of space for four people. The kitchen was spacious and well appointed. We appreciated all the little thoughtful touches throughout the home and the fun, locally themed decor. And of course, the view was spectacular! Thank you for a relaxing and memorable stay,

Host was super responsive. House was beautifully decorated and well-stocked/outfitted. View was incredible and we enjoyed the big picture windows. I would definitely stay here in the summer, too, as it seems outfitted for outdoor living and kayaks, etc.
