Host thought of everything !!
My partner and I just wanted a quiet weekend away where we could just enjoy some relaxing and fishing, I have stayed at about five plus rentals a year and this by far was the cleanest and well thought out stay of any. We had such a wonderful time caught some fish watched the birds and wildlife.

Serenity Found
This quaint cottage was beyond our expectations. From the kitchen which had everything we needed and beyond to the comfy of the beds, towels and accessories provided. The outdoor BBQ stand was an added bonus. The overall cleanliness was top notch. A return in the future, for sure.
