July 13-20th Dad's Paradise on Pigeon Cove

Overall a great trip. The house had everything we needed and more! Everyone truly enjoyed our stay! Was so great seeing all the wildlife - sand cranes, deer, great blue heron, hawk diving to get fish, all right from the back porch!

Phenomenal place to stay!

The house and property were perfect for the trip we took. This was our 10th year of doing a bird hunting trip, and we hadn’t done a trip to Drummond before. The neighborhood is quiet with plenty of wildlife all around the house. You are close to a gas station and grocery store, and minutes away from great hunting and fishing. The house was comfortable, making the stay very pleasant, even after chasing birds through the woods the entire day.

What a Gem!

What a gem of a house! We came up for a last vacation before school starts & it did not disappoint! My father & sister joined my husband, myself & our kids, & we were all blown away by how beautiful the property was. Right on the water, we enjoyed all the wildlife that came through, had bonfires every night, & enjoyed the very spacious backyard. The house inside was cozy & perfect for our needs. We really enjoyed the stocked kitchen, along with the washer & dryer. Dryer was a little finicky but other than that, everything was absolutely lovely. Carrie made check in & check out super easy. Overall a 10/10 experience! We’ll be back for sure:)

Beautiful views

Loved the tame deer and all the wildlife on the lake. Plenty of room for my family of 4 and my 2 parents. It did get hot inside with no AC, and made sleeping a little tough, but we survived with a lot of fans. We also didn't have good luck fishing in the bay, but next time we'll have a better idea on where to go. Overall, we enjoyed our 3 days there.

Relaxing

Our stay at Dads Paradise was just that. It was kind of like staying in a nature preserve. If it wasn’t deer it was sandhill cranes, or blue herons, or the loons, just to name a few. The best of all was the treat brought to us by Casa. The bass were a welcome surprise. Thank You

Slice of heaven on the island

This was the perfect location for a relaxing stay on the island. The house was stocked better than any I have stayed at - had anything we needed. Such a peaceful setting on the water with deer walking right up to the back deck. The host was more than accommodating. Thanks for making our time on the island absolutely perfect.
