About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Art and nature retreat

The spacious design of our Mid-Century Modern home is great for family stays, reunions with friends and creative retreats. The wood paneled walls are adorned with original artwork. The living and dining rooms are beautifully furnished with comfortable sofas and a large dining table that overlook the estuary and ocean. The bedrooms are furnished with comfortable beds, blankets, linens, & sheets. And the bathrooms are equipped with natural Icelandic soap, shampoo and towels. The kitchen is fully stocked with an array of spices, vinegar and oils. The pantry has some basics for late arrivals.

Our home was featured in Korea's In Style Magazine and has been filmed in numerous documentaries.

There is a garden to relax in however children should not go or play there unattended as there is a bluff steep cliff.
