Gorgeous and secluded from the busy, sound of the waves to lull you into the afternoon nap, or deep restful sleep in the evening or a long walk on the beach. Cottage was really cozy and in the fall I can just imagine how cozy it would be with that fireplace on. We will stay there again.

Marco & his family were great guests. They were very respectful of my cottage. Had towels washed and bedding stripped & put in hamper, dishes all cleaned. They were so friendly that I would say they came as “Guests” but left as Friends!! Come back anytime!

Beautiful Spot!

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful cottage! It was clean, private, and perfect for a relaxing getaway for me, my boyfriend, our three-year-old, my sister-in-law, her husband, and their dog. Donna was a great host and everything was just as described. We especially loved the quiet, beautiful scenery—it was the ideal spot to unwind and enjoy nature together. Highly recommend!

Ashley & her family were excellent guests. They were very respectful of my cottage. Had beds stripped and towels in laundry basket. The kitchen was left tidy and dishes clean. Thanks so much, hopefully you’ll come again!

The house was clean and comfortable, with a location that can't be beat! We enjoyed many mornings and evenings exploring the water (just make sure to wear water shoes!), walks along the shore; I even brought my paddle board and paddled a few times! Donna was a very responsive host and we had no issues the two weeks we stayed. We delighted in the bald eagle nest in the backyard and watched the sun rise from the back deck. Just be sure to bring your bug spray!!

Quiet and beautiful cottage

Very peaceful and relaxing, right by the ocean, beautiful sky at night to watch the stars. If you want to visit a little, the place is somewhat secluded so get ready to drive at least 30 minutes to do some sightseeing. The host is very nice and accommodating. Her cottage is fully equipped for anyone to spend an enjoyable week The host is really

Hélène & her Family were very respectful of the cottage, leaving everything in order. I was pleasantly surprised that they had stripped the beds & had towels & dishes on, with having such an early morning start! Very Friendly & thoughtful!

Room to breathe!

We enjoyed the peace and quiet after a busy day touring the Island. The Big Cottage is an older building with a cozy, rustic feel. Everything you could possibly need for your stay is provided. Just bring food and your personal belongings and you are set! The property is large, a long way from the road and very well maintained. Kids and dogs will love it!
