Patti
We enjoyed our stay here. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor space. Tod provides plenty of outdoor seating, a nice BBQ and a fireplace outdoors. The glass doors open the house up to fresh air (be sure to be gentle on the doors). There is a great kitchen, but the refrigerator doesn’t have a freezer. Bring an ice chest and stock up on ice (there is a small store close to the house). We weren’t able to enjoy the beach when we went, but Greenhorn Campground is 10 minutes away and has a day use area. Overall, we enjoyed the relaxing, quiet atmosphere. Highly recommend this little jewel.

Much needed stay, great communication, great location. Off grid, but close enough to nearby towns if needed
