We had high expectations for our visit and were not disappointed! Loved the view from the balconies. Especially appreciated the covered and uncovered porches as it rained one day and we were able to enjoy the view all day in comfort on the side porch. Dog friendly. We took baby gates along to block stairs off porch and actually moved an outdoor storage chest to block off the entire porch for our dog. She loved running in the fenced in yard. Collier Cove nature preserve is close and was a fun rigorous hike. We appreciated all the starter supplies for kitchen and bath. Lovely coffee shop the Beehive at start of climb to house. Several breweries with outdoor seating within a short drive and lovely breakfast places with takeout—Ava’s Doughnuts and Biscuit Head. We did not realize the grassy area in back was totally fenced in. That was great and made the 4-day stay even better.
