Lovely place

Check in was super easy. Everything was very clean and comfortable. We spent most of our time at the house sitting on the porch looking at the view. Sutton's Bay is 10 minutes up the road, one of our guests enjoyed a side trip up rhere. We were able to do a bit of swimming. The stay at this house really enhanced our trip.

Gorgeous house - great for large groups!

We had the most amazing weekend at this gorgeous property. The waterfront views were stunning and like others have said, the pictures online don't do it justice. Joe was an incredible host, super responsive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The house was spacious and well stocked, with plenty of room for everyone to hang out comfortably. We also loved the outdoor space, it was perfect for games and lounging around. We were so sad to leave and highly recommend!
