Location was amazing! Walking distance to the pier, which allows avoiding parking hassles! Short walk to Duntons Doghouse for great local eats! House worked perfect for our family of 6. The boathouse was an extra bonus as it allowed us to spread out for relaxing. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking implements. Would have been nice to have basic pantry staples like salt/pepper, oils, but that really the only additional request I’d have, everything else was great! Host was responsive and proactive. 10/10 would recommend!

The cottage was much smaller than I expected and felt considerably older than the listing photos suggested. While it did have cosmetic updates, it definitely felt quite old. Future guests should book with the expectation that they’re staying in an older cottage that has been given a facelift rather than a newly renovated property. There were a few practical issues during our stay. The host dropped off Keurig coffee pods, but there was no coffee machine available to use them. Basic supplies such as soap and shampoo were also provided in very limited quantities. There was active construction taking place next door, which made parking more difficult and impacted the overall experience. On the positive side, the cottage had air conditioning, which was appreciated, and the location was convenient with a nice view. Overall, the stay was okay.
