The cottage is beautiful! It's appears much larger in person than the photos. The bed and recliner are really comfortable! Bathroom is really nice with a large shower. The location is great right on the water we were able to bring our own jet ski and its so convenient that they had a dock and ramp at the house. Marc our host was extremely pleasant and accommodating. I would gladly stay here again!
