While relatively remote we found little reason to leave the property. There were so many things to experience for all our ages. We do recommend renting a golf cart.

We had such a lovely time here! We had six kids with us ages 7-3 and they had the best time! The pool is nice and big, they LOVED collecting eggs each morning and feeding the alpacas. The house is really well situated and they now have code memories they’ll take with them forever. Highly recommend this home for big groups and a family and friends reunion like ours!

We loved this place! It truly has everything. We were four families - Grandma, her three kids, and her 5 grandkids, ranging in age from 1-13. The hosts are lovely. They left us two bottles of wine and a gift certificate to Emily's produce. The house is amazingly outfitted for children -they have all of the baby stuff you could ever need. I have never experienced a rental that made it so easy to go on vacation - all the comforts of home plus alpacas and chickens and a pool and the bay! It was such a help that there were so many toys , books, games, puzzles, and art supplies for the kids. They were always occupied. The 5 and 9 year-olds especially loved the electric kid vehicles in the shed! Both the property manager and the man who cares for the chickens and alpacas were very nice and helpful during our stay. The chicken eggs are plentiful and absolutely delicious. The kids went out there several times a day to check for eggs and to pet any chickens who might be laying an egg at the moment. The bay was nice and shallow for the little ones and they enjoyed playing in the sand. There are even blackberry bushes down there. I'd recommend boating in the morning - in the afternoon, the tide is low and it's hard to find an area deep enough to get going in the kayak! The layout is strange, as others have noted, but it wasn't really a problem for us. Everything was very comfortable, and we loved eating and spending our evenings on the screened in porch. A delightful trip!

We loved this place. Surrounded with really good people.

This property is everything a vacation should be. The owner has thought of all the details. We vacationed with our 5 children, ranging in age from 6 months to 12 years. Everyone was happy, including Mom and Dad! There were activities a plenty right on site. We only left for groceries. The house is clean. The beds are luxurious. The kitchen is fit for any culinary adventure you can dream up. But it doesn’t take dreaming. There are fresh eggs and the bounty of the bay literally out the back door. And beyond supreme functionality, it’s breathtakingly beautiful. A timelessly appointed, American house, on serene acreage. We had complete privacy enjoying the secluded beach and took our yearly family pictures on the long dock. Do your family a favor and retreat to The Haven. We will certainly be back.

We stayed here 6/24-7/1. The property is amazing and the home is just perfect. Our family group has a number of kids who spent a magical week swinging on rope swings in trees, catching frogs, fishing and crabbing and checking for eggs in the chicken coop and swimming in the pool.We were able to arrange a photographer visit and with the alpaca handler were able to get some photos of the kids in the pen. The home has an amazing kitchen. There is an amazing array of kids toys and outdoor activity toys. It was a beautiful experience. Kyle Mosteller was always responsive to our inquiries and was incredibly helpful in making our stay just perfect.

A charming, beautifully decorated, well appointed home roomy enough for our large family. Our 9 grandchildren had a wonderful time swimming, playing kickball, fishing and doing crafts in the screened in porch. (Bring bug spray). Our seven year old caught a 26 inch striped bass off the dock. He, and his dad were so excited; we ate the fish for dinner. The bedroom layout was not ideal but that did not detract from our stay. The major upstairs bathroom needs a mirror! The outside grounds are beautifully kept and the dock into the bay was spectacular. Our family vacation was memorable. Thank you! Oh, the alpacas were quite an attraction too.

My family and friends had the pleasure of spending the Memorial weekend at this amazing home stay, booked through VRBO. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the incredible amenities and the attention to detail that made our stay truly unforgettable. It was spacious, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The owners had clearly put a lot of thought into ensuring that guests of all ages would have a memorable experience, as there were so many activities available for everyone in our group. The house had a fully stocked kitchen that allowed us to prepare delicious meals throughout our stay. The appliances were top-notch, and there was ample space for multiple cooks to work together. We appreciated the thoughtfulness of the owners, who provided everything we needed to whip up culinary delights. Last but not least, the communication and hospitality of the owners were outstanding. They promptly responded to our inquiries, provided clear instructions. However, one minor drawback that we encountered was the layout of the bedrooms. While the bedrooms themselves were comfortable, spacious, and tastefully decorated, we found that the proximity of certain rooms led to a lack of privacy and inconvenience when accessing the common areas. At least three bedrooms shared common entrance to each other, requiring us to pass through these rooms to reach the shared spaces, such as the living room, kitchen, or outdoor areas.
