My family and I had a wonderful stay at the cottage. It's a pleasant 15-20 minute walk into restaurants, bakeries and a Saturday farmer's market. There was a *stunning* trail through the property and the beach was wonderful. The cottage is well appointed and the hammock and adirondacks outside were incredibly relaxing. It is right looking over active pass, so there are periodic ferry horns, but this didn't really bother us. Unfortunately, I would not describe the location or beach as secluded. There were many campers there (camping looked splendid!) and even though the listing says it is a "walk-in only" campground, the parking lot is actually directly adjacent to the bedrooms of the cottage, which (depending on the campers) made for some noisy mornings with car doors slamming and people hauling gear in and out of their cars, not to mention idling their cars. I think if we had known this, we would have been more prepared for it, but the listing isn't exactly forthright about how much camper traffic there is. I imagine this varies throughout the year. All in all we had a very good stay and would gladly come again.
