Perfect Getaway Spot

We really enjoyed our last-minute stay at "The Nest" and having 2 houses next to each was very convenient. I'm definitely considering coming back with my extended family when it gets warmer. The houses had everything we needed for a short stay like trash bags, hand soap, paper towel, and even coffee. There were even 2 docks! We live locally and needed somewhere to host my son's birthday party. It was a low-key party, but we needed enough outdoor space for laser tag and roasting marshmallows. Jen, the owner, was very gracious for allowing our little party if we promised "no confetti, glitter or loud music." (Agreed - I don't want those in my house either!) Thanks for a memorable birthday!
Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025
