Wonderful stay!

enthusiastic hiker Alexandria, VA
Review Submitted: June 30, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Description was accurate. Owners were very quick to answer questions before our visit and also very responsive once we arrived. Plenty of room to be by yourself or with the group. The younger kids particularly enjoyed the loft. Great location for getting to places on the island.

A very scenic setting, comfortable house. The owners are in the front half of the house and love playing host to guests. Lots of attention to detail (flour, salt & pepper, kleenx, soap and toilet paper all provided)
