Well set up with a large kitchen and multiple bedrooms. It was a bit cold and rainy for outdoor eating, but the deck and lawn setup looked inviting. It was nice to have a pet friendly place to stay. We enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable.

Our long-weekend stay was excellent! We loved the outdoor deck with its beautiful view and the proximity to the beach. The house was well-appointed and the beds were comfortable. Due to a burn ban we weren't able to have a fire, but we enjoyed sitting in the Adirondack chairs under the trees, enjoying the breeze from the water. Very relaxing!

We enjoyed this lovely home for the third time - still very comfortable with nice views, a great yard and deck. An easy walk to the lovely beach where we kayaked on Holmes Harbor. A great lay out for multiple family members upstairs and downstairs. We love to cook here and the kitchen is well stocked. Thanks for an enjoyabletime!
