Cabins were a great spot to relax. Tucked away just above the beach and surrounded by the farm. If you enjoy peace and quiet this is the right place

Awesome location- nice place to destress with the family. We were a group of 7; the weather limited outdoor access- if fine it would be superb. It would be amazing for a smaller group or two couples. A definite place to revisit.

This is the place to be if you're looking for privacy. Your closest neighbour is far away on another hilltop. The beach is just a couple of minutes walk away and you have it all to yourself. We'd love to be able to go back there again.

Great place to stay. It was tight as we were 7 adults and it was very rainy so weren't able to utilize the outdoor space as much as we would have liked but was still a great time.

This place is a gem. The location is superb, only a short walk down to the beach which was great for fishing. The cabins are comfy and clean and we loved the covered deck for sitting and admiring the ocean and the sunset. Lynette is an awesome host, friendly and helpful. We loved our stay.
