We bought groceries off the island to save money and had everything we needed to cook in the kitchen. The wildlife, hot tub, deck and sauna was enough entertainment. From the huge deck We saw harbor seals, harbor porpoises and so many gorgeous birds including bald eagles. The house was immaculate and has all the nicest touches including spa robes and heated tile floors. Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience ##### Laura S.
