Smooth and professional, as always.

This was our second year at On Hobbs Pond; by far the greatest feature is the peninsula jutting into the lake, which gives an expansive view.

Love the is of using the website to book a vacation rental. I am also confident the Rental will be clean when we arrive for a week at our rental.
Property
This was a cute and cozy cottage. Since most of our week rented was after The Labor Day weekend the pond was nice and quiet.
We liked the location because it was on a quiet pond yet close to the ocean. Even though we had some rain on our vacation they were plenty of antique shops to keep us busy in the area,

We had a wonderful time and look forward to coming back next summer. The little peninsula that juts out into the lake is one of the best features.
