Here's what our guests have to say about the Lower Level:

"We just came back from a
WONDERFUL stay in the Lower Level at Stonegarden Cottage...The cottage is lovely, filled with lots of information about St. John and decorated in a tasteful yet comfortable manner. Nelda even had fresh flowers waiting our arrival. The walks through the substantial stone gardens were a bit of tranquility in paradise.  We will recommend any one to stay here, on the quiet side of the island!"
-- Cate and Peter, Naples, FL

"Location is wonderful, house is very comfortable, with full kitchen, fridge etc.  Beach chairs and umbrella are provided as well (believe me, you need it).  Good restaurants and bars (including Skinny Legs) are close by.  And send our best regards to the sweetest hosts - Thia and Raf Muilenburg."
