We had an awesome girls weekend here. Julie and her family were very helpful and super nice to deal with. Can’t wait to come back again!!!Thanks again for everything Julie!!

Our group consisted of a Mom, her two sons and their family, including children, aged two and six. Total: 7 people.The house is very attractively decorated and comfortable with lots of generous social spaces, including the stunning and well furnished broad deck facing the water and public swimming area. As the only single adult there, I took the room that is accessed from the deck with the double glass doors. It’s a sweet space for sure but perhaps better suited to teenagers that were old enough to be out there on their own. There is no room on either side of the bed to get out, so you have to do so over the end near the door – better suited to those with younger knee joints!We loved having breakfast and coffees outside at the long table and then moving over to the lounge chairs for that 2nd cup of coffee. The kids loved snuggling up to us on the cushioned lounge furniture that is under a covered roof. If it were raining when someone was visiting the generous covered roof over about half of the deck would allow you to still be outside.The only reason that I couldn’t give communications with the manager, the highest grade was said it took a while for them to respond to our message about having no hot water. Once they were able to pick up the message, however they were on it quickly and kept in touch. They offered us the ability to shower at their place while there was no hot water.Owners are professional and friendly and were good to us.

Pros: -The host was lovely -The location was unbeatable Cons: -Place had a lot trinkets/breakable things. I understand this is subjective and probably only a con if you have young kids like we did but I figured useful info for families. -We got the pizza add on which turned out to be stressful and very difficult. The pizza oven took hours to heat up which we would have liked to know ahead of time before paying and we had to use coal so it didn't get up to a high enough temp. After hours of trying to get it hot enough and lots of smoke and stress we ended up with very hungry cranky kids and very frustrated adults. Overall in my opinion this place would probably be great with adults or families with older kids. For us it had some challenges with little ones and I would not do the pizza add on had I known what it involved/that there was a wood ban.

Our impression of your cottage was everything we expected and more! The pictures don’t do it justice! Your home had a very welcoming energy and we all felt at home. Julie is a very impressive hostess and kept us informed the whole time. The views from the deck were very breath taking and your garden was so spectacular! Thank you so much for such a lovely week in your beautiful home!
