We have yet to make it to this spot! We had to cancel at the last moment and Meg offered over the phone to allow us to re-book this February, using the credit from our canceled trip. However, we haven't heard back yet, and would like to proceed with this offer and check out this lovely looking spot. Please email, Meg! Thank you.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is lovely and very spacious. Hot tub overlooking the water was a treat! We'd definitely stay again.

The house was in a great location in proximity to Turtleback hiking areas. The view was great from the house and when we had a minor issue with the heat, the owners were extremely quick to respond to us and have it fixed. Overall it was a great stay.

This place is completely worn down and has been severely neglected for far too long. Very little has been updated for at least 15-20 years, possibly way longer. There are literally holes in the bathroom floor. Holes in the ceiling that have been boarded over. Cobwebs and spiders in most corners. Dirty, dusty, dingy, faded, and outdated. Bedding is ancient, worn and musty. The beds are absolutely horrific -- worse than camping on the ground on my sleeping pad. We all had terrible sleep and sore backs after two nights. The couch and the arm chairs in the living room were so worn down and missing any cushioning that it was impossible to sit on them for more than 10 minutes without discomfort. The hot tub is so dilapidated and grimy that we didn't dare use it. There are no blinds, only sheer curtains in one of the bedrooms, so my daughter woke with the sunrise. The deck boards on the wooden deck are so worn down that my daughter got several splinters from them. This place is a sham and the owners should be ashamed of making money off of this place. It's time for them to either put some money back into it or sell.

I dont know about you, but I am over the expectation of composing these reviews. It has become tiresome.

We had a great time. We were able to unload at the marina next door, by asking permission from Nick. The house was a great for four adults. We cooked all our meals there, played games and sat in the hot tub. Great location with wonderful views. The dogs were fun too.

Had a wonderful stay at Maggie's with my two friends. The place was HUGE and very comfortable. View was amazing too, and watching the seals frolic in the bay was a highlight.
