Everything was great! The kitchen was well equipped and the second refrigerator was an added bonus. While the weather was chilly we still enjoyed practicing soccer and walking/hanging out by the water-the sun helped us to socialize by the beach. The “sun rise show” was fantastic and hike in the area was short and sweet due to grandkids getting older, being teared away from electronics and ping pong!

We spent a delightful long weekend at Tom's shorefront house. We cooked all our meals for 12 and found the kitchen more than adequately outfitted. Thanks to Tom's extensive information packet we made use of the local seafood suppliers. He always responded to any inquiry promptly, even on a weekend.Everyone (all 12) found the sleeping and bath accommodations clean, well-supplied and comfortable. The multi-space layout and the grounds were perfect for everything from alone time in the hammock by the bay to dining family style at the long tables- inside and out. It was October but some still enjoyed the kayaks and bikes. Everything in the long list was provided. If you need something he has probably provided it. Multiple car parking required a little bit of creative planning. The wood burning fire places (by the Bay and in the living room) allowed for nice endings to the days. Catch a spectacular sunrise over the bay with flights of pelicans and cormorants. The only negative comment is about the water. Small water & well systems are mainly unfortunate. Tom gave an honest description. The garage apt water is not on the main system and we found it unpleasant. The house water is acceptable but use the bottled water for drinking. People filter their home water, so this is really not a negative comment, just a note. We would definitely return to Tom's place. He has obviously invested time and thought in providing a bayside retreat that feels private and comfortable.

What an absolutely wonderful vacation experience! The house and property are top-notch—from the many pine trees to the private beach to the well-equipped kitchen and comfortable bedrooms. Everyone in our group said that this was the best vacation place we’ve ever stayed at—“it checks all the boxes.” Tom is a great host and great communicator—all instructions were clear and thorough. We hope to come back!
