Family Reunion "Summer Camp"
An ideal spot for our reunion of 24 extended family members, mostly 20-somethings and their partners plus parents aged 60+. The sprawling 1880s house on grassy acreage and its newer outbuildings ("Boathouse" + "Baby Boathouse" plus barn for storage of bikes/balls/lawn toys) have an old-world ambiance. Kitchen is so well outfitted, we easily sliced, cooked + grilled dinners for a crowd (and even baked a cake). Multiple porches, screened and not, enabled our large group to eat together.
The owners generously made available vast collections of balls + sports gear from the barn, grill propane, wood pile for fire pit, spare blankets, 2 sets of laundry machines. No locked closets, "owners only" labels, nor fussy checkout rules. We felt like family.
Owner/mgr Fred, lives nearby and is welcoming and responsive. Brought cucumbers from his garden. When we flagged confusing listing-page info on bed sizes) and BYO linens rule (formerly hard to find), he acted to fix right away. (We ended up renting sheets + towels from the local firm Fred recommends.)
If you are looking to stay in a shiny McMansion with spa showers + memory-foam mattresses, this isn't it. Most bedrooms have a 'summer camp' vibe: wood-paneled floors + walls, many twin or full-size beds + simple bureaus. We mostly relied on outdoor showers, but by preference! It's a beach-house luxury--esp. after swimming in lovely, semi-salty river on "our" private pier just across the road.
