Summary: Relaxing Stay Our family of 4 stayed here for 7 days and it was so secluded and far away touristy areas.The property was 5 stars. The layout and furniture were beautiful and clean.The beds so comfortable!The only drawback was the bay was not so enjoyable due to the bugs and we couldn’t swim in the water due to the mucky waters.Lots and lots of Horseshoes crabs… all dead and the smell is bad at times.

Summary: Our second stay at the Summer House was just as peaceful and lovely as our first visit. The home is comfortable and has everything we needed for the week. Mother Nature offered us a crazy weather week from gorgeous sun and light breezes to thunderstorms and rainbows. Thank you to Jen for being a wonderful host.

Summary: This is the second time we have stayed at this property and I am sure we will again! The cottage is literally on the beach, and every day the tide brings in smooth stones, unusual rocks, and fascinating fossils. (I use them in my mosaic artwork.) The cottage is beautiful, with everything you need for a relaxing vacation, and the owner is very kind and immediately responsive to any questions. In spring, when we have stayed there, we are usually the only people on the beach, so it is wonderful for privacy. It is one of our favorite places!
