Stowaway

By Thomas D from Absecon, New Jersey, Posted: 04/14/2021

When we first booked we were expecting a great experience because of the pictures and location. We were a little weary that the pictures would look better than the property (typical concern when renting anything from a business for the first time) and our slight worries washed away the second we opened the front door. This experience far exceeded our expectations. We saw that not only were the listed amenities available but there were some extras, such as kayaks, life jackets, bug spray, sunscreen and chairs for the fire pit. We were in heaven, and we shuffled plans around so we could spend more time at the cabin enjoying everything included. I taught my girlfriends son how to kayak for the first time here, which will be a lasting memory. He loved it so much that we would wake up to him already awake and fishing on the dock. Thank you so much for this experience!

Very good experience. Reservation folks were helpful and courteous. The cottage was in excellent condition.

Wonderful Cottage
This is a very well-kept and secluded cottage. All updated appliances and comfortable sleeping arrangements. We had a wonderful week there and loved the view and the privacy. Beautiful dock and shoreline. The hike tp the cabin from the dock can be a bit arduous but not terrible. Without question, it is a great place to spend a week.

Relaxing, Private Escape
My husband and I stayed in Stowaway for a week in July and really enjoyed ourselves. The newly renovated cabin has all the creature comforts one needs in a lake home, as well as some excellent bonuses: two kayaks, a stand-up paddle board, inner tubes, and a fire pit. There is no air conditioning (we were there during an unusual heat spell), but the cabin is very well-ventilated and there are ceiling fans galore. We loved how private the home is, located down a gravel road through a winery, with only two neighbors. Very quiet and *no* road noise. The listing says AWD is recommended to reach the property, but our sedan handled the road and driveway just fine during the dry, hot summer weather. The cabin is small and has one bathroom - ideal for a couple or family. The graded yard and stairs to the beach can be a workout, but we didn't find it to be a problem. Those with mobility issues will, however. We only wished that the outdoor furniture had been sturdier and more comfortable. Otherwise, we loved our week at Stowaway and would highly recommend it.
