Its a thoughtful arrangement. Such as klennex and coffee pods. Many details added to an older cottage, makes it very cozy. We love the view.

We had a fabulous stay. The property offers beautiful views. The room was clean and cozy. The wine glasses were a nice touch after drinking wine out of paper/plastic cups at our other accommodations. :) The staff were super helpful & friendly. I would definitely recommend and stay here again. We ordered several apps for a late night snack and had the breakfast. Both were delicious!

Cute Cabin with a Fantastic View

Staff were friendly, allowed an early check in. We would have liked to have eaten at the restaurant, it looked great but limited optikns with my wife's food allergies. Highlight was sitting on our private deck in the evening reading and watching boats come in and out of harbour

Disliked: Cleanliness
While check-in was easy, it just was rushed and unlike Most check ins The overall state of the place looks very tired and dated. Definite improvements can be made to the grounds in terms of trimming up bushes trees to make it more appealing on the exterior. The rooms were tiny and very old. Having said that the bed was very comfortable with what appeared to be fairly new linens as were the towels in the bathroom. However, the bathroom was small and there was an odour to the room
