What Guests are Saying

It is wonderful little cozy spot. You feel right at home and super welcomed! Joy was super super friendly and accommodating! Our stay here was the highlight of our trip and THE best stay we’ve had with Air BnB.

Staying at cozy, sweet On Shore Leave is a truly unique experience. Joy is a gracious host indeed. We left with just-picked wild blueberries and home made jam. Partner Eldon entertained and filled us in on the history. The garden setting is charming with loads of fruit trees and berry bushes.
