Summary: This was by far the most wonderful experience that we have had anywhere with a VRBO rental. The location is spectacular -- directly on a bay/beach with sweeping views out over the water from all rooms. Opening up all the sliding glass doors in the morning essentially brings the outdoors in; in the evening because you are facing directly west, there are lovely sunsets. The 3 king bedrooms are very comfortable, and the two bathrooms are excellent. Everything is immaculate. There are paddle boards and kayaks on the beach and a 30-min paddle takes you to the town of Russell where there are numerous restaurants and a good supermarket. The house feels like a private resort, the more so because of the long private drive in from the highway. The owners live in the adjacent house and are wonderful people who respect privacy but are readily available if needed. The kitchen is well equipped and there is even a brand new BBQ. We were hard pressed to imagine anything that we would have wanted done differently--our summary is that this is the perfect place, a beautiful retreat.

Summary: Everything about the property was top notch. House had everything you need and was serenely quiet. Close to Russell without being in the hustle and bustle and well located to see all the sights of the Bay of Isles. Would recommend to anyone looking for a luxury base to explore Russell and surrounds.
