The shack was clean and cozy! The boat house was awesome! I was able to tow my boat to the island where I launched it nearby and took it into the slough to the boathouse. We had an awesome time motoring the islands and exploring the beaches they are up there!

Love this place, very nice change of pace, kayaking and paddle boarding a must, the water was warm and lots of stuff to do . The people in this town are helpful and friendly. Thank you Jeanine for stopping to check on us and we will definitely be back.

We absolutely LOVED the Welcome Shack. It was 85* and still wasn’t too too hot. The portapotty was the cleanest I have ever been in. Jeanine was very communicative and emailed directions/everything we’d need to know beforehand. We will definitely be coming back.

Such a fun visit! The tiny home had everything you'd need for a comfy stay. The porta potty was clean, and there were nice, stylish furnishings. We came in May, and there is a fair amount of algae on and near the dock - the slough is def better for kayaks and boats than tubes! There's a drop off from the ramp to the dock of about 2ft so be prepared. All in all it was a nice homebase to explore the area - and only 5 min from an amazing creamery, so, bonus!

I loved staying at this shack! It's comfy and cozy, and on a beautiful, remote island. Although my girlfriend and I stayed there in February, we had no issue with it being cold. Jeanine was very communicative and helpful. One note: if you are visiting to take the ferry, make sure you bring cash.

It's a cute lil shack. Feels bigger and cozy and the inside than it looks on the outside! Everything was clean, it would be nice if there was more water in site, but that bit to big of a deal with the stores close by.
