Liked: Cleanliness
8 guys in a hockey tourney thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Owners, Judy & Johan r helpful, welcoming, accommodating & gracious hosts. King, Queen, Bunk Beds & Couch queen sized pull-out, &/or room to sleep on 3 large couches. Huge screen TV in the spacious living rm, a great reclining Lazy Boy, dinner table for 6, well-equipped kitchen, great BBQ, great upstairs lounging deck, Wifi, etc. Quiet nights, security locked gate, safe & secure. Adjacent boating excursions & lots of watercraft passing in what's a very clean looking Marina. Downtown location is close to restaurants, grocery stores, liquor stores, craft stores, ferry landing, etc. Would gladly return & wishing Judy/Johan the very BEST!!!
