Tremendous property, views, great accommodation & 1st rate host. We loved the serenity of Rust Op Twist after our daily excursions around island. Porch was heavenly in mornings and evenings, comfortable bed, high speed internet. We tried to make sure that a day didn't go by without us walking the grounds to Sugar Mill and to beach. Linda's recommendations were spot on - thoroughly enjoyed horseback riding with Cowboy Steve & restaurants (Chicken Shack, Spratnet). Linda's property and lovely cottage were ideal for taking life out of gear. We tended to eat out at lunch and enjoy dinner at cottage and her kitchen provided everything we needed for meal prep. For those who prefer bottled water to cistern, there was a good supply with a terrific dispenser in kitchen when we arrived and with our long stay, we went into town to Plaza East to refill dispenser jugs (very low cost to refill).
For future guests we recommend super short drive to snorkeling at Cane Bay (just around corner) and meals at the Landing & Spratnet. We brought our own snorkeling gear but found there was also some gear at cottage. Point Udall & Cramer's Park and lunch at the Goat, Soup & Whiskey (soups & view divine) on way back are worth the short drive to easternmost point of island and snorkeling trip with Big Beards to Buck Island was great. Before & during trip, Linda was a perfect host to make our 1st (but hopefully not our last) trip to St. Croix amazing. This place IS MAGICAL indeed!
