Picture perfect
The cottage is a little piece of heaven set in the privacy of Tom Nevers but close enough to the beaches and town. We were there for our first anniversary, on a romantic holiday, and it was the perfect choice. Everything in the cottage is charming, right down to the linens and the pictures on the walls, and all the amenities (washer, dryer, well-stocked kitchen, a dishwasher) are provided. We brought our schnoodle, Chester, and he loved the doghouse on the deck. We also brought our car, but it wasn't really necessary because we ended up biking most places. Nothing is very far away on this island, and buses and taxis are available in case you need them.
We especially loved sitting outside on the generous deck, barbecuing on the gas grill and watching the stars; we couldn't believe how many there were! Birds fly in and out of the bird-feeder in the garden all day, singing as they go, and there was one spectacularly exotic bird with a long multi-colored tail that showed up now and then. We also saw, in a single day: a robin, a starling, a blue jay, a sparrow, an oriole, a woodpecker, a red tail hawk, a pine siskind, a cardinal, a chickadee, a purple finch and a goldfinch.
We can't wait to go back.
