This is a beautiful cottage. The view alone was wonderful. Enjoying the screened in porch was our favourite place. We also enjoyed the lovely dining area outside. The beds were very comfortable and the bedrooms provided enough room for everyone. It was a nice bonus to have a second bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped. The dock area was large and lovely to sit on and enjoy the scenery. Having the canoes and kayaks were a treat to explore the lake and locks nearby.
