The house was tucked down in a private spot; the trees and hydrangeas were out of a fantasy novel; the property manager Lynn was fantastic at communicating and helping us out; and the house was full of great books, furniture and art. The location was a great jumping spot to rocky beaches and both harbors. Thanks for a great stay!! ##### Jenny W. ---
