A group of 6 stayed comfortably. The stay is exactly as described, had a wonderful time hanging out at the house, getting to and from the island was simple, would stay again! ##### Anthony P.

We had an amazing time staying here! The place was extremely clean & it was so nice having full bathrooms in each of the rooms. The deck/pool area was perfect for grilling out & being outside all day. The hot tub & sauna were also very nice! Mosquitos were bad at night so we couldn’t be outside long but that is to be expected in July. Really cool experience taking the ferry over to the island & would definitely come back here! ##### Jonathan H.

The location was very peaceful and had beautiful windows and light. I'll say the pictures make it look a little nicer than it is in person, so taper your expectations accordingly. Lastly, the hot tub was not working during our stay, which was a surprise to us. Notice of that would have been appreciated. ##### Yvonne R. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Kelly G. 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This house was clean and spacious. It was very nice that each bedroom has a private bathroom. The deck & pool area were great. We were disappointed to find the hot tub mentioned in the listing was not available for use. The kitchen was missing essential items such as hot pads & kitchen towels. It would’ve been nice to have larger pans & bowls in a home that can accommodate 8-10 people. An electric griddle would be great. We would also suggest more plasticware for around the pool area. Nice to have a large garage to park our cars. We were able to safely keep our 2 jet skis at the dock, very convenient. ##### Kelly G. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Greg S. 8 Sept 2025 ##### Greg S.
