The Island: Dangar island scenic and beautiful.Then there are walks, some are stunningly picturesque and some are just hidden to go to the top of the island. There is a small beach for a good swim .You can never get tired of watching trains going into the tunnel and coming out the other end. The island has two shops, one is this little café by the wharf station, great for coffee and breakfasts and getting some utilities with outdoor sitting with a view of Brooklyn bridge. The other is the Bowling club for few drinks and good lunch/dinner. People in general are very pleasant and welcoming and same goes to hosts of these two shops. Please make sure to check the timings of the shops and ferries for further planning. Island itself is very safe and has no snakes or wild animals.
The House: One of the best thing about this house was its location, it is very close to the wharf, cafe, bowing club and the beach. Everything in walkable distance of less than 5 minutes.
It is a beautiful specious house and has two large size bedrooms and a kids room and living cum dining area that is huge. There is a bird feeding area and a porch for outside sitting. Kitchen is copiously equipped. Has a large enough Sony tv and xbox in the bedroom. House gives a very elite and erroneous feel. Furniture was to taste as well. There were good number of books for reading and Piano and Guitar to play.Wont write much to leave for other people to explore and experience.
The Host: Jane is a very good host and was prompt in answering all the questions we had before coming to the island and was also forthcoming to provide valuable advice regarding ferry services and places to shop around. Jane made sure the house is in impeccable condition, very clean and very well equipped. She even left her Netflix on for us (would advice future folks to bring your own chromecast in case you are interested in your own or other OTT platforms. Thank you Jane for sharing your house with us. We loved it.
