Albert's "Baxter's HideAway" a Unique Treasure.

Walk Softly, There’s a Dream Here! Seasonal rental, no heat. Review from Bob: "Albert’s place was so lovingly put together. Creative, like living in a museum." "Impressionism" enjoy my choice of artist paintings throughout the cottage. Nestled in the private Mills Point Peninsula is Baxter’s Hide-Away cottage waiting for you and your companion. Perfectly situated steps to The World Famous Colchester Causeway Bike path and Lake access. Not a good neighborhood for singles coming to party.

Selkie’s Shed

This guest house has been built and designed by my husband and I. It sits behind our house with private walking/biking trails right out your door. The design is modern with natural warm colors and tucked away in the trees. The loudest noise you will hear are the owls hooting and a faint distant train whistle two times a day. Our mission is to create an atmosphere of tranquility, calmness and peace. We offer mother nature outside your door with easy access to all the activities you desire.
