Lovely spot
If you are looking for a secluded spot, this is the place. We enjoyed going for walks and kayaking around the island. The kitchen is spacious so we did a fair bit of cooking, although it’s a short drive into town to go out to dinner if that’s what you prefer. The only drawback is that the downstairs bedroom was a bit loud because of pumps turning on and off at night, but if you’re a sound sleeper that shouldn’t be a problem.

Perfect Get Away
This was an awesome location to get away from everything and everyone but still close enough to Lunenburg Such a beautiful spot by the water. The home was well equipped and the pictures did not do it justice.

Hideaway on the water
Spacious and with everything you need. Wonderful host answers texts within the hour. The wood paneling is gorgeous and the place was very clean. Very comfortable beds. And a deck with a wonderful view of the water.

Quiet, relaxing stay
Very tranquil setting to enjoy sunrise and sunset. Lots of deer on the drive in and they don’t mind you stopping to photo them and watch them feed. House is cozy and comfortable. Folks with mobility issues might want to consider other options as there are a good number of steps. Loved our stay!

Scenic and tranquil views.
Great spot to stay and not far from Lunenburg. Check in was easy and the host was prompt to get back to us with any questions. The place was very clean and comfortable. A nice quiet area to go and get away from it all and enjoy seaside nature with lots of seabirds and deer that would pay the occasional visit. Lots of space inside and on the deck where we spent most of our time reading and taking in the scenery. Everything you would need is provided. Having access to the kayaks and paddle board was great. Would definitely stay again. Thank you.

IF you want something private and beautiful this is the place. It is off the beaten path but well worth it. Getting to see deer every day was amazing. You can even roll down your window and talk to the them. It was exactly the peace we needed. The view is breathtaking.

Calm and quiet
From waking up and having coffee on the deck to nightly Bonfires by the water. You would almost assume there were no neighbors it's so relaxing and calm. We even had a visit from a few Deer one morning. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and would definitely come back again.

Better than pics!
We were lucky enough to stay at this property. It was even nicer than the pics made it appear. The kayaks and stand-up paddle boards were a nice bonus. Just about everything was anticipated by our host. He was also very responsive. 10/10 will definitely stay again!
