Fishing on the dock, relaxing by the fire pit, cooking steaks on the grill, falling asleep on the front porch… this house was perfect for the two of us. The neighbors were very friendly and the small town charm here has us wanting to come back as soon as possible. 10/10 would recommend for a beautiful getaway."
