Great location
The location of the property was great as it was just a short walk to the marina. The porch was a wonderful retreat, too. We however, felt the property needed a good sweeping and mop job. After our 7 month old baby dropped something on the floor and it rolled under the couch, we found trash, cups, wrappers, and dust bunnies galore. We didn't realize that the floors were so dirty until we gave our 2 year old a bath, then put her in footed pj's.....Her feet were filthy. The cold air return in the kitchen had lots of dog hair sticking out of it too, which was pretty gross. With the extra amount that is charged for cleaning fees, and pets fees, I certainly expected a clean home.

Great home Close to Marina.
Very nice property and was close to Marina. The Slip in F slips was awesome to keep the boats in the water for our trip under cover. Very nice home with everything we needed for our trip. Thank you.

Great summer trip
We had a wonderful time at Sundog Cottage. The place was very spacious, clean and the proximity to the marina could not be beat. We loved sitting on the front deck and taking it all in.

Great place and location!
Beautifully decorated and perfectly set up with everything you might need. We have stayed at many rentals over the years. This one was like home. Including dog treats, bowls and pickup bags for your furry friends! The owners were both so quick to communicate any needs you have. We WILL be returning.

Great vacation
Nice property, great for your dog to run around, grass was long making it hard to find the droppings. The property is convenient to the marina although up a steep hill, there are a couple of sets of stairs to the chalets and another rental that drops you off a few yards from the drive. Plenty of cooking items, pots pans, baking sheets silverware. Master bath is very cozy there is not much room between the corner of the vanity and the edge of the shower to get to the toilet, must be thin to comfortably get to the toilet, the vanity could be moved six to eight inches and it would be perfect. The property is described well and if you bring a boat there is a 33 dollar a night for a transient slip and 25 dollar trailer parking fee which is up the single lane road to the top of the hill, also they want to charge a ten dollar ramp fee but it was waived. Restaurant at Flat Hollow is good, the restaurant/dock area is very new and super nice. Furniture is nice and accommodating. This is a pet friendly unit but the only cleaning items to clean floors is a broom with out a dustpan upon arrival the floors were covered in dog hair and we had to sweep the carpet in the family room. All in all it was very enjoyable stay and accommodations were very adequate, would likely rent again.
