Quaint little getaway
What a perfect family vacation! The property is perfect with fun options for the kids on the water. My two boys loved the SUPs and kids kayaks and were anxious to use them throughout our stay. The location is quiet and far from noisy touristy spots. We were pleasantly surprised! The cottage was only a few feet from the water which was perfect! We will be back!

We enjoyed our stay
The cottage was nice, beautiful sun sets. We were able to enjoy the kayaks and paddle boards. The other cottages created a community.
