Having family with grandchildren on MDI, it is often a challenge to find a place to stay in the off season. Manset Studio is a wonderful find for our family! Mary's hospitality was evident from the moment of arrival, with a handwritten note, a basket of fresh fruit, homemade jam, and snack bars. The studio is aesthetically pleasing with its light wood floors, walls and ceiling. Comfortable living area with access to small deck with meadow views, great lighting for reading or knitting, TV, games, puzzles, magazines, a comfy futon sofa and armchair share half of the space with a fully-equipped kitchen that reminded me of a sailboat galley, with its efficient use of space. There was even milk and juice in fridge, coffee beans, tea, cocoa and all the fixings for lobster meal or picnic. Beautiful botanical paintings on mugs and plates. The front half of the studio contains the most cozy comfortable bed built into its own nook. Staying in January, the flannel sheets, down comforters, and throws, along with excellent reading lights made me want to burrow in till spring! A wall shelf filled with a variety of books sits waiting, a big window catches the sun, there is a small desk and chair equipped with radio/streaming. Adjacent is the spacious bathroom with great lighting, shower with excellent water pressure. This studio met all of my needs for an extended stay. Excellent heat in winter, ceiling fan for summer months with cross ventilation. Private drive for parking very convenient. Mary's discreet accessibility made me feel welcomed, and I knew I could seek her wisdom for local resources. This hideaway studio is a gem! Thank you for all you did to make my stay so welcoming and comfortable, Mary!
