Property was super clean. Private, yet only minutes from town. I would definitely recommend this property to families with elderly parties. No steps, just very slight slant downhill walk to get to private dock! My elderly mother thoroughly enjoyed her stay! 1st floor bed and bath made it easy to navigate with her home oxygen. Many other properties could not accommodate. 5/5. Would definitely stay again. ##### Kim T.
