We love staying here! This was our second visit! The house is immaculately maintained. Just about everything is perfect! Can’t say enough good things! Great linen, wonderful kitchen, great coffee maker, and fabulous view! Our favorite pastime is sitting on the deck watching the birds and boats! So quiet and relaxing! The best!

Our time in this charming cottage was beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would definitely return for another stay. Deborah was very kind and friendly and communicated immediately when any questions. The scenery was so beautiful, the house was comfy and clean and beds were also comfy. The cottage was decorated very nicely and felt very homie.

Calling this property “a little piece of heaven “ would not be an exaggeration. Secluded, quiet, private, super clean, well-maintained, indeed “charming “. Even though it drizzled off and on while we were there, which the northwest is wont to do in May, we were very content sitting in the sunroom, watching the birds outside past the long expanse of lawn that extends down to the water. Really the only time we left the cottage was to go into town and get food. There are lots of great options for a food, even gluten-free food. We went to Saturday market on Saturday and met some really nice, friendly folks. We will definitely go there again. The 5 Hour Dr. was well worth it.

2nd time stay. Both were just right. Not fancy, but clean and comfortable. Minimum of goo-gaws. More space for our belongings. Kitchen is adequate for cooking meals. The best though: the glassed sunroom. We watched for birds at least 2 hours every day. We were very happy and relaxed with our stay.

We absolutely loved this exquisite little cottage!!The sunroom is by far the highlight—easily the best room in the house. It offered a peaceful retreat where we spent hours watching hummingbirds. The kitchen is beautifully equipped with high-quality dishes, pots, and pans, making meal preparation a pleasure. The towels are plush, generous in size, and wonderfully fresh.The cottage is impeccably clean and very well maintained. The only thing we would change is the length of our stay—we truly wish we could have remained longer. This property is a solid 10 out of 10.We followed the hosts’ restaurant recommendations and were delighted with every dining experience. We also enjoyed a lovely hike to the nearby deserted island. The cottage far exceeded our expectations in every way.Beautiful flowers surround the property, adding to its charm and making it a truly special place. We highly recommend it and hope to return soon.
