The two story house is private with a backyard fire pit. While the home is exclusively yours, the property itself also has another studio rental and owners living quarters across the driveway. We promise to be respectful neighbors;) please note this is a pet friendly property! We do have dogs that we keep with us at all times, but you might see on the property.
The kitchen has recently been updated with all new appliances and paint. The bedrooms have new mattresses, and fresh coats of paint throughout.
The two bedrooms are located in the second floor along with two of the three bathrooms. The master bedroom king sized bed is a high off the ground four poster bed. The other bedroom has a regular style queen sized brand new bed.

Comfortable stay on MDI

We had such a wonderful stay at Nicole's house with our family and our pup. The house was very clean and well-stocked, with plenty of space for our group to spread out and relax. We loved being on the quiet side of the island and so close to delicious spots for lobster. We'd love to return!
