The setting is gorgeous and the house is beautiful! Shannon, being a textile artist, has a fine sense of aesthetics. Both Shannon and Alan were exceptionally thoughtful and helpful throughout the entire experience, from booking, through departure. Shannon's zucchini muffins are fabulous! The bed was very comfortable and the rooms were very clean. My room had a view of the inlet and was spacious. As the house is nestled among tall trees and on the water, the setting was quiet, peaceful and lovely. Overall, the experience was delightful!
