"We stayed only two nights but wished we had more to take in all the sights of this gorgeous location and the amenities of this fully stocked home. Everywhere we looked there were supplies and notes/information displayed to make our stay memorable, comforting and so welcoming. The house was spacious but also had several cozy nooks (with scenic views) to hang out."

"This might be my second review....but wanted to make sure that you knew how much we love staying at Tazelaar cottage. Its the perfect place for 4 good friends to retreat and refresh in the midst of our separate lives. Of course the beach access is wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed the addition of the hot tub this year! We will always choose to stay here when in Holland!"
