    We had a great time celebrating a big family Thanksgiving at this cozy and welcoming cabin. The rooms were accommodating with everything we needed. The kitchen was definitely the best part though. Spacious enough and well appointed for many cooks in the kitchen making memories and of course favorite dishes. The host was very gracious about answering questions promptly. Would definitely return.

    Cabin On The Cove was perfect for our group of sewists and quilters. We enjoyed the lovely water views and especially the wildlife including deer, geese, and a blue heron who lived across the cove. The house was very comfortable and well equipped. We want to return!!

    Thank you to Ryan for a wonderful stay at the cabin. If you are looking for a peaceful stay for some R&R this is the place to be. Ryan went out of his way to make sure we had a canoe that I had requested. Unfortunately there were a ton of jellyfish the entire time we were there and the boys did not catch any fish. However, we did get some crabs and steamed them. Loved having the crab pots. The paddle board was great! Would def recommend!

    This property has great counter-space in kitchen and enough bedrooms to accompany an extended family/friends get-together. The privacy is great (especially when the corn is high) and the scenery is beautiful. It is as advertised. Our family of 6 adults and one 12-mo-old stayed 4 nights during a terrible heat wave. The downstairs stayed cool, but the upstairs had trouble maintaining a comfortable temp. The host provided box fans, and that really helped. Enjoyed the crab pots and kayaks. Saw the Spring Cove heron two days in a row.

    Relaxing and peaceful. 3 nights with plenty of space for the five adults. The kitchen was equipped with all the necessary items to cook and enjoy family size meal prep. I would definitely be back and hope to stay at the same location. Also, I found the price for my stay a whole lot reasonable than staying in a hotel.

    This rental was a great idea for a weekend getaway. The kids loved being at a cabin on the water and being outside. Only downside was pollen but you can't control nature lol. Everything was cozy and comfortable. Found a great restaurant too and loved being off the grid. 100% would do again!

    The cabin was exactly as described - beautiful, serene, and clean. We had a good time. Weather cold have been better, but we were still able to catch a couple dozen crabs early in the week. Place is a bit remote, it takes awhile to get to other places, but that is what we like. Would recommend this rental to those who love privacy and the serenity of being on the water.

We also tried out the sunset cruise and had a fantastic time! Definitely an amazing vacation and can't wait to go again in the future! Any questions we had were answered quickly, Ryan was a fantastic host!

    Cabin on the Cove is a lovely home in a beautiful setting. We enjoyed all that the home had to offer! It is most spacious and comfortable. The cove was wonderful for kayaking and my granddaughter taught herself to stand up and paddle board. We played croquet on the lawn several times. Many thanks for a great holiday!

    We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, the view was beautiful and it was secluded and peaceful, yet not a bad drive to restaurants and stores. The owner was very responsive and when the grill ran out of propane while cooking our dinner, he rushed over with his own tank from his personal grill. The kayaks, paddle boards and crab cages were a big hit with the kids.
