The home was very clean, comfortable, nicely decorated and had all of accessories needed to make it a wonderful place to stay. We loved the location as it is close to the “town” of St. James and also the beautiful Donegal Bay. The property manager, Sarah, was very accessible and helpful. We highly recommend this home for your Beaver Island visit.
