This is an amazing and beautifully kept property, right at the water’s edge. You feel as though you are in a houseboat. It is so well supplied, many condiments and a well stocked kitchen and lots of thoughtful touches through out. We were lucky enough to meet the owner as we arrived and he was very welcoming and helpful. We really appreciated being able to have the dogs with us and enjoy this fabulous spot.We will definitely return - thank you Richard
