Best for one person or a couple. The second bedroom would be fine for children but not really suitable for adults.

Rustic and quiet
Joel and Michelle are good people. Always asked if we needed anything. The unit is very comfortable with all the fixings. Word of caution, the shower is small, so if your a big person....... The deer walk right through the yard. Is about a 3 minute drive to John Henry's marina. Will see you again next year.

HI Jamie, thanks for your honest feedback and for choosing to stay at Garden Bay Hideaway. As you noted, the shower is small, in particular for larger guests but we are happy that you enjoyed your overall stay and experience and hope to see you again next year for another excursion. Warm Regards, Michelle & Joel

Swing and a miss
The area is beautiful!! Unfortunately this trailer is on a very large cleared gravel road with broken down machines, a half built chicken coup , some garbage and another trailer right beside. All trees are gone making it more like a parking lot right beside the road. Behind the trailer is a home with a rescue dog that is shy and barks A LOT. We tried to befriend it but it was nervous. He would go out of his way to come stand at the trailer to bark at us. Also, nice fellow living there was building something which required a saw to cut through metal. Needless to say, no view, no ambiance, no privacy and it may have been quiet before but with “Woody “ the rescue dog it was not at all quiet and there’s about zero chance of spotting wild life.

Debra, it’s unfortunate that you never expressed the neighbour's dog and noise concerns directly with us during your stay. As we don't reside on the property, we were completely unaware and certainly would have responded as we did to your other requests for additional firewood, a problem with the outlet, a grill for the fire, etc. We will discuss your concerns directly with him, in the interest of our future guests. All said, I'm disappointed with your poor review as I feel we did our best to accommodate your needs. Since you disregarded the checkout time by 1.5 hours, we were forced to reschedule our cleaner whom advised that you left the trailer very dirty. I do hope you show more respect for the other properties you choose to book and consider communicating such concerns to your hosts before posting negative reviews. Michelle & Joel

Great fun 'glamping' experience
Overall very happy with our stay here for 3 nights. Why? - Great location within biking distance to lakes / ocean - Loved being able to hang out by the fire but then sleep in a super comfy bed at night - Place was exceptionally clean and well-stocked for cooking etc. - Hosts were helpful Overall highly recommend :)

Quiet, private and well-situated location
Our family of three adults enjoyed a week’s visit here. The trailer has everything you need, is neat, clean and cozy. General store and small restaurant close by. We enjoyed watching a doe with her fawn from the deck most mornings and ate s’mores by the campfire with supplied firewood. Wifi is excellent. We’ll come back.
