We have rented some very lovely homes, but nothing tops this rental experience. Angela has been such a wonderful host, full of great suggestions for activity and dining. And the home itself was incredible! The architecture is beautiful, with amazing views from 5 of the spacious rooms of the Sound, the rocky outcrops, the seals and water birds, the sailboats, the moonlight, and the sparkling evening lights of homes the opposite shore. The interior is designed for maximum bedroom privacy, with graceful pocket doors providing great flexibility and enabling a 2nd bedroom to have an "ensuite" bathroom. The fireplace, set on a large granite ledge and well stocked with wood and kindling, was a delight. And the kitchen proved to be a phenomenal place to cook. It seemed to have EVERYTHING! Better stocked with specialty pots and pans and appliances than our kitchen at home. And it is so well designed, it was easy for multiple people to work in. And the dining room, with beautiful views of the sound, was a joy. But I cannot omit raving about the deck. A wonderful spot for the eight of us to enjoy morning coffee and evening cocktails, listening to the seals and shore birds. Bring those binoculars!
