Cozy spacious bedroom with queen bed, only half mile to Rt.95, exclusive bath
Very attentive and thoughtful host. Spare of decor and basic but clean, tidy, safe, convenient and as advertised. Our room had AC and was just what we needed for the weekend. Easy parking.

Rustic Lakeside Cabin at White Gate Farm
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at White Gate Farm. The private cabin was perfect for our three-day getaway. The lake view was amazing, and the cabin was clean, appropriately appointed and incredibly comfortable. Would definitely recommend!
