What a great place with an incredible view, gorgeous sunrises and clear clean water to play in. There were five of us and we all thoroughly enjoyed watching life on the water. We met the local swans, Osprey, ducks, cormorants, crabs and we even saw a horseshoe crab walking up the sandbag path. There were times we did not even want to take the little side trips we had planned because it was so beautiful at the cottage. We enjoyed exploring the town of Bristol and the surrounding towns. It was a great place to call home base and make little trips out into the other really beautiful towns around there. My favorite thing was going Quahogging. I even found some welks. I thought they were conchs, but a neighbor told me they were welks. Another wonderful thing was the outdoor fireplace. We loved curling up out on the deck listening to the night sounds and roasting marshmallows for smore’s. The weather was sunny and beautiful, in the 70s daytime and 50s at night.
Thank you Steve and Erin for all the welcome surprises and for renting us your lovely place. We have some great memories from the week we were there. That blueberry bread from the local bakery was delicious and we did make a trip back to that market for additional baked goods and fruit.
