Enjoyed our stay very much. Loved having the big grassy yard. Also the benefit of a large garage to store my bike, kayaks and paddle boards. The owner was very nice to work with. We would definitely book again!

Tina knows what she’s doing. This is our third stay and the property is charming and well maintained. The detached garage is a plus for loading the vehicle on those windy and/or cold days in October. Would highly recommend staying here.
