5 chambres au bord de l'eau sur la réserve naturelle de 700 acres sur l'île privée

Thank you, Jennifer! We’re so glad you enjoyed your return visit and that you liked the outdoor shower addition. It was a pleasure having you and your dogs back, and we look forward to your return again

Thank you for the very nice review. You and your family were terrific guests, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime. I’m glad you mentioned your family’s initial concerns about being on an island. As you discovered, there’s plenty to do—fishing, hiking, swimming, games, and simply relaxing. But the mainland is only about a five minute boat ride away. In fact, I’m on the island now and heading to the mainland later today for a bike ride, and tomorrow I’ll be golfing with friends.

Mike Thanks for the kind words. We look forward to having you back next year. Glad the fishing was good.

Joanne and Dave Really glad your experience was great and looking forward to your return Thanks for the comments John

Paul Thanks for the comment and hope to see you back John

Thank you Mike and always great to have you back. Best, John

Thanks Kristi! Hope to see you again next year.

Thanks Kristi Hope to see you back again next year

Celia So glad you and your family had a great time. The pictures you sent during your stay were fantastic and it was clear you were exploring much of what the island has to offer. It helped that apple picking was in prime season. I hope you come back! There is still more to discover John

Thanks Pat! You, your brother and families(and 2 dogs) were great guests, and I enjoyed speaking with you both before and after your trip.. Glad you enjoyed it and were able to take advantage of almost everything the island has to offer, so I guess you have to come back to keep trying! I still am. Best, John

Thanks so much for your thoughtful, descriptive and kind review. Given you rented for a full two weeks, your comments mean a lot. The island is a special place where you can entertain yourself with so many different things, or just relax, but only leaving the island once is impressive! I look forward to your return and letting you know of the improvements we have made, which we do every year based on suggestions. John

Hey Paul, thanks for the kind words. It was great having your family and friends and I hope you do come back. I also appreciate the time you took to give me some suggestions after your visit which I will definitely implement. Best, John

Kristi Thanks so much for your kind words. We are very much looking forward to your return! Next year we will have additional improvements, like central AC throughout the house and other items that we will announce soon John

Thank you for your positive comments and for taking the time to provide detailed feedback, including areas where we can improve. Although the boat is older, it is well maintained and equipped with a 250-horsepower four-stroke engine, GPS, electronic controls, and stabilizers. We offer it as an optional convenience for transportation, tubing, fishing, and exploring. Boating experience is required, and docking can be more challenging in windy conditions. Regarding the comment about threadbare items, a few older seat cushions had inadvertently been left on the outside deck. Those should have been discarded, as we have plenty of newer outdoor cushions available. The house contains several Oriental-style rugs, including a high-quality, hand-knotted Persian-style wool rug in the main room. The family-room furniture was also reupholstered with high-quality fabric within the past year, and the leather furniture in the library is in excellent condition. The Thermador professional oven and microwave are approximately two years old, the trash compactor is about three years old, and the GE French-door refrigerator is approximately eight years old. A cosmetic piece did fall off the microwave, and we apologize for that. The trash compactor does have a piece that has already broken on it and has been repaired. We will inspect all of the appliances. We provide mattress protectors and maintain a supply closet with extras. I am not sure what occurred during this stay, but I will look into it. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. We appreciate your feedback and are glad that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you back.

I was glad to get the various texts saying what a great time you were having with all the amenities. Hope to see you next year John

Thanks for the kind words. I know we had a couple minor issues: eg, the propane ran out for the stove(a very rare event), but you were very patient as George came right out to the island and took care of it. Come back! Best, John

Thanks Jim and Sherry; great having your crew out on Grenadier. You accomplished a lot, from boating, riding the Polaris, and catching some big fish. Yes, please send some of the pics, as I need to do justice to the island. Hope to see you back soon John

Thanks Pete Glad you took advantage of some of the many things the Island has to offer. Hope to see you again next year best, john

Thanks Cheri. Of course it really helps to have great renters. Island life is not for everyone, but am really glad you enjoyed the island and its history. Thanks also for fixing our purple martin bird house: I had been meaning to do that, and hopefully they take residence next Spring! john
