Firstly, the location overlooking the water is absolutely stunning. Waking up each morning with a view of the inlet from the master bedroom was something we won't forget.
Unfortunately for us the rain water tank ran out of water when we arrived so we couldn't conduct day to day water usage, but we had a temporary fix to assist with toilet flushing etc.
Even though we had the watergate issue, the helpfulness of the owner and his manager helped us forget the shortfalls and focus on the beautiful location we were in.
The house itself is very basic, but the views facing the water, large deck with BBQ, and uninterrupted walk to the shoreline more than made up for it.
I'll summarize a few points below to assist with your decision if you are looking at staying here:
Pros:
- literally stones throw from waters edge
- peaceful and somewhat secluded
- large enough backyard for an event
- recreational area under the house with table tennis is great for kids
- deck is a good size for large BBQ get together
Cons:
- dated interior
- have to pay $5 each way for vehicle ferry to property (can purchase a weekly pass to mitigate this)
- no amenities on property side
