This was a great stay! The place was extremely clean and had everything we needed including a beautiful outdoor area. Peter was responsive and helpful throughout our whole stay. It’s walkable to Main Street in Rockland and there’s so much to do in this area - would highly recommend!

Nice place to spend the summer!
A small house in quiet neighborhood with spacious first floor, two small bedrooms and tiny but adequate bath. Fully supplied with linens, cooking necessities, a wonderful resource book of places to go, hike, dine, etc. large back yard with nice deck. No mosquitoes! Very responsive owners!
