    We stayed in the same beautiful house last year and saw no reason why we should not return. We always have the most wonderful and relaxing time at this house, not matter what the weather!

    a guest from San Francisco, CA recommends this vacation rental

    overall, an absolutely fabulous stay.

    although we would love to return to that very spot, we most likely will not rent the home again. the space was very generous, but not well-thought out. since there was only 1 full bath, it was not feasable for more than one couple to rent the home comfortably...and at 300 dollars a night, is just too cost prohibitive for us to ever do again.

    next time we'll hope to be able to rent a home with friends that has a layout more suitable for a few adult couples.

    a guest from Brentwood, Tennessee recommends this vacation rental

    The home was wonderful. The only suggestion I have is to have someone clear away the cobwebs. There were no coverings over the bathroom windows. (?) When we called about booking the location we were told they wern't sure if the homeowners would like to book the location this far in advance, (approx. 4 months), they would ask and get back with us. We never heard back so we went ahead and booked it over the internet. Other than these three SMALL things, both the home and location were wonderful and we appreciate your sharing your home with us.

    • Manager Responded on 10/3/2010

      We are very happy you enjoyed this home, but dismayed that someone was not responsive when you called! Not knowing the details of who you spoke with, we offer no excuses, just our apology!

    Jennifer R from Bellevue, WA recommends this vacation rental

    We just enjoyed Water's Edge at Doe Bay this August. The home was truly perfect for us: a lovley combination of beautiful, site appropriate architecture and warm, inviting decor. It sits in a stunning setting, with views of the water and islands greeting
    you on both floors: while sitting on the comfy corner seat reading or while waking up in either bedroom. The home is super clean and well maintained. The kitchen is appointed with high quality cookware, and we appreciated the soft sheets and nice towels. Thanks
    for this wonderful get away from which we enjoyed sea kayaking,great local dining, hiking and the beautiful island.
