We had mostly rainy weather, but the cottage is in a beautiful surroundings and has a great view of the lake. There are several seating arrangements for outside enjoyment. The deck is spacious and only a few stairs away from the huge patio. The stairs are helpful to get into the lake. The covered veranda was our best protection from moscitos. Beds were very comfortable All amenities were satisfactory, including Internet speed. We went a few times to Barry's Bay, Killaloe and Eganville.
