Peaceful Stay

Do not underestimate the size of this house. It is small but has a perfect layout. Kitchen is equiped and organized with everthing you need. The bathroom is very nice. The two bedrooms are spacious with very comfortable beds. We slept very well during our stay. The living room and dining room provide plenty of space to eat and relax. Spend some time on the deck in the evening or down at the shore for a nice evening camp fire. We will definilty add this house to our vacation schedule next year.
