Perfect for a peaceful relaxing family get away
8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2024
This was the perfect house for our group. It was definitely an older home, with lots of antiques and a lot of character. It could’ve been slightly cleaner. Also of the space was occupied with owners things which tended to clutter and make it hard to make use of all the space for fear of disrupting owners things. There was mail in kitchen, dressers were full. It felt like we had stepped into a lived in house as guests. The bathroom was well stocked, the bathrooms and kitchen were very clean, the antique carpets needed a cleaning. The outdoor space was amazing, we didn’t get a chance to use the canoe, but wish we did! We would definitely stay again. Luc

My family and I enjoyed staying in this house because of its charm and history. It had so many beautiful antiques (so we were careful with the toddler) and the house itself was from the 1800s. The air conditioning worked well, and the were enough comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms for our group. The best part for me was the gorgeous grounds right on the peaceful water!
