Description from owner

Description

Walk down the elfin path to a welcoming red door that opens to a warm knotty pine paneled interior that features a queen sized bed nestled into a window-lined alcove with water views that stretch forever.

Unwind, take a nap on the waterfront hammock on your private beachfront (summer only) or depending on weather, curl up in front of the charming gas stove. Cook a meal in the small but efficient kitchen equipped with everything two people need. Dine on the intimate table set for two inside or sit outside and enjoy a BBQ on the deck.

One of this cottage's charms is its coziness. It is small and definitely not for claustrophobic. Isle Dream Cottage is a relic of the nearly lost past when life was simple and our conversations were about what we saw out of our windows instead of on a screen.

How wonderful to shower under the stars in our shower for two built into a skylight; be entertained by the eagles that soar above your head; connect with the deer that come to call in the front yard; count the sea stars on the beach by day, befriend a sunning seal, gaze at the dazzling stars in the sky at night; and make a wish on a (frequent) shooting star.

Experience the constant joy and serenity of this place sitting on the deck listening to the breeze through the trees. Waking at night to a crescent moon over the mountain, the gentle sound of water lapping on the shore. A stay at Isle Dream Cottage leaves memories forever and it will constantly draw you back.
