Perfect getaway!

We had our small wedding on the island and it was perfect! The chalet was beautiful and clean, the camping spots were easy to find and well signposted. The island itself is beautiful, we had the best time. Josie was great at communicating and provided all of the necessary information. Check in and out was easy. Would highly recommend this beautiful spot for group gatherings or family getaways. Truly a special place!
