Guest Comments

"The magnificent view. the cottage itself - extremely well kept and very well equipped - also very clean. One didn't need to bring anything other than food, sheets and towels - there are so many things to do there - bocce for example and one is very comfortable. Our whole family loved it."

F. Barrow

"Fabulous, 2nd year at White Pines and enjoyed it immensely, again!"

S. Sneyd

"It was fabulous - best cottage we have ever rented. The view was spectacular, it was very clean and one needed to bring virtually nothing it was so well equipped. The water access, slide, etc were great for our grandchildren. It was so peaceful and beautiful and very hard to leave. I think it made a difference that this was a rental property but the owners also used it. It wasn't just renters in it. We hope the owners will have us again. All our family wants to go back."

F. Barrow

"We were so impressed with things that were not in the images. ie. the many places to read and enjoy sitting outside, the wide hallway and the lovely laminate flooring throughout, the organization, attention to detail, cleanliness, and quietness. We found the property easily, and were provided with all the necessary info in a timely fashion. We enjoyed the privacy combined with the many outdoor places to sit and relax on the deck or on the beach. The obvious care and forethought that went into the landscaping and development of the property allowing it to be private and nicely developed at the same time."

D. Meitner

"Our family had a fantastic time. It was so great to have all the kids together. The Bocci Ball court was a bonus. We played for hours. We especially enjoyed all the property around the cottage. It was very private and we didn't need to worry about our dog encroaching on anyone elses property. The cottage itself is very well equipped and was very clean. It is very spacious. The grounds around the cottage are well kept and lots of wild and domestic flowers. We would be very interested in renting this cottage again next year, possibly for 2 weeks."
