Located in a rural coastline, the stars come alive and almost appear within reach on our part of the Island. This beautiful property has been in our family since the 1950's when Scott's granddad bought the property. Granddad would bring his children and camp on the property on weekends. They enjoyed boating and playing over on the beach. Now that this peaceful haven has been passed down to us, we hope others will enjoy their time here just as our family has over the years.
