The house, property and the area was wonderful. The family and I had a great thanksgiving meal and enjoyed all the area for all it has to offer. This is the second time staying at this home and it didn’t disappoint us.

Our family had such an amazing weekend at this cozy, yet spacious home on the bay. The views are incredible and we spent tons of time outside soaking up the sunshine and beach glass hunting. Jeni was so responsive and a pleasure to use this terrific place.

Really enjoyed this place. Only downfall is distance from everything. Actually that may have been the best part. It was quiet and peaceful with deer and blue jays galore. Even saw an eagle family hunting along the coast in front of the cottage.

Terrific

This property is even more incredible than the pictures show. We traveled with four small children and a set of grandparents. There was more than enough room for the eight of us. The view is breathtaking and fantastic beach access. The host Jeni was an incredible host and was so easy to reach. This is hands down one of the best homes we have ever stayed at in the last 10 years.

This house is in a great location with a wonderful beach area, we spent a lot of time outside. The house has a unique layout that gives people more privacy, this was great for our group. My only complaint would be that the cookware and knives are old and there is not enough cups and glasses for everyone, plan accordingly.

This property is on a beautiful private beach just steps from the house. The views of the sunsets from this location look almost tropical! The house is perfect for multiple families and we are so glad we were able to be together. It made the vacation so much better and memorable to have such an awesome location! Jeni is wonderful to work with as well and responsive to requests.

We had a wonderful long weekend to kick off our kids’ first week of summer in this lake house. We are familiar with the area having visited nearly every summer for the last 35 years so we know how great it is(!) but have been looking for a new home to accommodate our growing family and this spot was perfect. The kitchen and main sitting area retain a log cabin feel while the rest of the home’s additions are thoughtful and well spread. We loved the master bedroom loft and gorgeous attached bath. So light-filled with great breezes and lake views throughout. The kids were thrilled by the bunk beds in the guest room (though safety rails would be appreciated on the top bunks for littles) and this is one of the cleanest rental homes we’ve ever stayed at. Plenty of space for our newly crawling baby to explore safely and confidently. Even a closet full of games for our rainy day. Loved the fire pit and beach was spot on—perfect for rock and driftwood collecting and crayfish watching. Will be back… this time later in the summer so we can enjoy more time in the water. Way too nippy still in late May to fully enjoy the kayaks and swimming. Neighbors are close but friendly and street is quiet as a mouse save the crashing waves. Wonderful stay! Thank you, Jeni!

We stayed here to do some fishing. We had 3 trucks and boats and had plenty of space. There were adequate electrical outlets outside to plug in our battery chargers and air pumps.
Beautiful location and all the rooms and beds were very nice. We had six older adults and it was very good for all of us.The layout is a little funky but, it worked for us.
