This is our second stay in this house and we were not disappointed! House itself was very clean and well stocked. Comfortable beds, tvs in each room with cable. The large fenced in backyard is perfect for dogs big or small. Spent a lot of time on the back porch which faces East so we watched the sunrise over the harbor every morning. It’s not even a block from decent restaurants and night entertainment. Will return!

Central location
We spent two winter months in this dated but comfortable cottage near downtown Fulton. It had homey touches and all the basics (except washer/dryer; laundromat isn’t far). Doors and windows could use weather-proofing, it was drafty on cold days. There's no residential mail delivery but the post office is a block away, so we rented a box for forwarded mail. Waterfront with marina, pier, restaurants and bars is a block away. Bars can be noisy at night, bring your ear plugs! Big fenced yard, picnic table and grill.

Nice Place
We enjoyed the house. There was some damage on the second bedroom window seal from what looks like wood rot. Additionally, dont forget to bring your coffee (there is no coffee in the house). The front door is challenging to get in and needs repair so we found ourselves going through the back door most of the time.
The house is in a great location and provides great access to the local area. It needs maintenance and work, but cozy and comfortable.

Cute home away from home!!
This is our 3rd or 4th time to stay at this home. The location is great and the home has a great fenced yard for our dogs. It is always very clean. We did notice this time that some minor inside cosmetic repairs are needed. A window frame in a bedroom looks rotted and part of it was missing, maybe water damage. The back door does not close well and a few of the plastic blind slats were broken or missing. These issues were not present during our last stay in Oct 2023.

Beauty by the bay
I loved this property; the back porch, the gorgeous trees, the spacious yard, proximity to the bay, the comfortable bed, and the central heating/cooling as the weather changed a lot.
My dogs loved the yard and walking to the marina and the bay. The kitchen is quite nice with a big roomy table.

Comfortable cottage
Comfortable cottage in great location. I like almost everything about the place. Just one of the beds was very firm and a bit too high for my parents to use. Fortunatly the other bed is lower and softer so parents stayed in that room. I didn't even think to ask about height of beds. So peaceful to sit on the back porch at night. Would stay there again.
