Guest verified by HomeToGo

Really nice property, house is really great for a relaxing getaway. being right on the water is great and there is park and walking trails near by. The dock is removed in fall to prepare for winter so that was the only thing I was not prepared for when booking but everything else was great. Just stunning sunsets out on the deck overlooking the water.
