Check-in was easy, cottage was very clean and staff were easily accessible for any questions. I was a little worried that staying on the marina, I might hear a lot of noise - the ferry/boats or people dining outside. I heard nothing except a few very faint ferry horns. The kitchen was great with a little fridge & freezer, toaster oven and microwave. A perfect little getaway spot!
