Lovely cottage
House is very comfortable and well equipped. Host was wonderful and very responsive. The view of the water is beautiful and the property is very private and quiet. Due to the remoteness, bring everything you need with you as there are not many stores or restaurants nearby. Also, if coming during hot weather, bring bug spray as the deer flies can be a nuisance if you are not prepared.

Very relaxing weekend getaway
Peggy’s cottage was great, in a lovely setting, and she was a wonderful host. The house was very clean and had everything we needed in terms of kitchen basics, clean towels and linens, washer/drier, etc. She was incredibly helpful and accommodating, and very responsive to questions. We had a fantastic weekend at the cottage and would definitely go back.

Amazing Time on the Bay
Beautiful house right on the bay. House is spacious and clean. Bathrooms are all renovated and modern. Big bedrooms. Kitchen and living room are big enough for your family and friends. We loved sitting on the large new screen porch and looking at the water and the area. The property is private and well maintained. The bay is only 50 yards away from the porch. Sunsets are magical. There is a new L shaped pier into the bay that you could fish and crab right off of. Or, just sit and look at the bay and enjoy the sound of the water hitting the shore. The owners are as nice as they come. Our family enjoyed every minute of our stay.
