Serene & beautiful property with privacy and views
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!

Beautiful
This property is absolutely beautiful, from the views to the cottage. We spent most of our time up on the screened porch where we could see and hear the ocean. The property manager went above and beyond with suggestions and information about what to do, where to eat and what to bring. Linda was always available for questions prior to our arrival and Fitzroy was always around if a need arose. We hope to return again next year, and stay for more than a week!

There were some quality aspects that were good but description set an expectation that didn’t match the view and beach experience.

This place is wonderful! Perfect location, quiet and beautiful. Owner was amazing, very quick to remedy any small issues, and it is a great home base to escape to after a long day of exploring the island!

Quiet Cozy Cottage
We loved staying at "The Magic Place". It was such a respite from our busy lives. Our host was very helpful and thoughtful. Few cars pass on the road and it is very quiet. The screened in patio was a great place to spend our evenings, listening to the waves and enjoying the warm night air. The view over the Caribbean from the mill is spectacular, as is the drive in and out along the edge of the sea.. The caretaker showed us the waterfalls in the rain forest and brought us fresh aloe. I highly recommend this little gem of a place. We look forward to staying here again soon.

Fantastic estate; fantastic host!
Everything about this day was perfect. The location on St. Croix could not be better and the historic home and a state or a stunning. Location is just on the water and is very close to all of their wonderful amenities offered on the north shore of the island. I cannot recommend it enough!
