Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Beautiful and private. Airy space and very comfortable. A unique dwelling with a beautiful large deck and fire pit. Rooms were nicely appointed and had everything you could need. Owners were prompt with replies to any questions we had and kept a meticulously clean cottage. Beds were super comfortable. Highly recommend and would visit again.
