This was a wonderful place to stay. The views and quiet, private setting were amazing. Everyone in our family had a great vacation and we are all looking forward to going back again. Thank you for an all-in-one place with relaxation and fun things to do.

We had a wonderful week stay as a family. The easy access to the water and exterior amenities made a day floating on the water a breeze. The property is super private and makes for its own oasis. We loved the charm of the old home and it had all of the amenities we needed. Screened in porch was great for early morning coffee chats or a nice reprieve from the sun. Not to mention the sunsets were amazing! We would visit again!

This is an amazing piece of property Our family had a wonderful week here. It felt so familiar to the river house & property we’d stayed at for 18 yrs. We saw many osprey, a bald eagle and many porpoises We fished caught crabs and enjoyed the magnificent sunsets. The screened in porch was a perfect place to socialize and reminisce about all the fun we had that day. Wouldn’t hesitate in renting this again. Patrick was a great host

A lovely getaway in a charming farmhouse with a fabulous sunset view. The screen porch is a perfect place to read and watch the birds. Lots to do around the area but you aren't going to want to leave the property!
