Lovely waterside cottage
We had a lovely time here. The house was very comfortable and the neighborhood was enjoyable. Small store, well stocked convenience store just a block away. I am just sad that the bakery was already closed for the season when we were there.

Family cottage
The cottage was comfortable and in a beautiful location, overlooking a harbor. We’d like to have had cable tv for national news. It’s a long drive to most museums, towns and interesting sites, but the drive is along beautiful roads, which we enjoyed.

Wonderful Stay!
My husband and I spent a week in South Bristol and thoroughly enjoyed it. The bed was comfortable. And the sofa was a great seating area. I really enjoyed sitting in the rocking chair looking at the water as it rained several days and we were not able to use the deck as much as I would have like. Walking is fine along the road but you must be on the look out for cars going by. We walked to Osier's several times to eat. Many sites to visit in the area. Excellent experience.

Lovely cottage in beautiful location
This is the perfect cottage for 2-4 people. It’s lovely to have a view from the bedrooms and wake up to see the sun glistening on the water. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, dishes and glassware if you like to cook and eat in.

Good times
Very well equipped. There were a lot of things we brought that we didn't need, as other years we needed sheets, blankets, etc. Heat worked well. Only problem was raccoons getting into garbage every night. We need a bungie cord to secure lid on can. Thank you for a happy week. Any chance for next June?
