Like we owned the view of the harbor and were still hidden by trees.

This home was furnished with art books, fine literature and food periodicals. It would take hours to just read the spines. The cross breezes kept us cool. The comforters kept us in our beds. Best of all, our hosts Janet and Bob, treated us as old friends. We cannot say enough about this gem of a property.
