My 2 days at Maureen's tranquil retreat was wonderful. Surrounded by books, trees, the sounds of the birds, deer rustling in the underbrush at night, for me it was the perfect setting for repose and reflection. She was hospitable, informative and very sensitive to what I was seeking, which was serenity and time alone. I very much appreciated her understanding as well as her company after time spent exploring and seeing the island.

I also read one of Maureen's novels during and after my departure. She is an accomplished author and insightful writer. Surrounded by books on the cozy couch, the fire crackling after a damp day in the woods, I was just where I wanted to be . I hope to visit again and enjoy the island experience and Maureen's hospitality.
