Sweet and clean cottage
The cottage was beautiful and exceptionally clean. We came for a relaxing getaway, and it absolutely delivered. Owner has prepare everything for us that we need to enjoy the relax cottage trip. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate, so we weren’t able to fully enjoy the nice outdoor space at the cottage.

Beautiful and Totally Relaxing
The cottage is amazing and very clean . We went away for a relaxing time and it definitely was that .
The only thing that was quite disappointing was the dock that we were so looking forward to was on the lawn and not in the water . Overall though it was a very good spot .

Cozy Spot that is well equipped
Great little spot, looked like it was recently renovated, all the appliances were new and the owners had left a little welcome basket that was a pleasant surprise.
