Fantastic vacation rental!
Unfortunately my husband and I were only able to stay here for one night. If we go back to this area, we will definitely stay here again. The kitchen was well appointed, the owners remarkably friendly. The bed was so comfortable, my husband wants to buy a mattress just like we had at Coles Bay. The owners even had apples from their trees waiting for us in our room!
