This property is perfect for a long weekend. Has a wood burning fireplace and BBQ. Check-in was super easy and the staff was super nice. Check-out was just as easy. The grounds were kept clean. There is a gas firepit and horseshoes to enjoy and walking distance to Boulder Bay. Definitely will be staying here again.

Will come back here again

Clean and love the style of the cottage, parking just outside your room.same price per day as the other hotel room but you can cook, you have your own dining and living space. You can just stay and relax there.
