Lily cottage is quaint and well equipped and very comfortable. A short walk from the ferry, it is convenient to everything.We were disappointed that the beach wasn’t really a beach that we could swim at, but obviously that’s not the house’s fault ;) and we enjoyed most everything else. I highly recommend!

Had a wonderful time. Quiet area and lovely area to walk and enjoy sites. Small home but welcoming. Met our needs.
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2024
It was neat, clean and had everything we needed. The parking was tight. The neighborhood was quiet. The yard
on the right was very cluttered and messy - not at all attractive. My cousin owns and rents the other adjoining property , which was neat and cared for,
