Summary: What a truly enchanting place. We so enjoyed the solitude that seemed to melt away the stresses of the world. Cocktails on the deck, roaring fire in the fireplace, rustic throwback to yesteryear, no TV and spotty internet...Perfect!! When looking to unplug. Nice neighbors and awesome 180 degree views from the deck. Our Great Dane puppy so enjoyed romping around off-leash on the grounds. Best Place I've ever stayed on MDI!! Book it and Chill! You won't regret it...
