A deck sits at the shore with plenty of space to sit and enjoy the view. Large dock from the shore with lots of room to sit and a diving board.

Great getaway
We loved our time at the cottage, which was very well equipped to host our group of friends and family. The kitchen was fully functioning and the rooms were spacious and very well decorated, a fit to any age group. This is a beautiful and spacious cottage in a gorgeous setting and we would not hesitate to book it again! Thanks for hosting us!

Amazing stay at Bellibong
There's no discrepancy when it comes to the ads of this property. Myself and my group of 8 had an awesome time. The water was still, the area quiet, surrounded by other rental properties. Although they are somewhat close in proximity, the neighbours (if renting) are quiet. The house was huge, clean and well kept. Appliances are modern and the cleaners did an amazing job keeping it well maintained and clean and nice smelling for our visit. This is a definite rental once again. Thanks to the owners for sharing this with us.

Great spot for relaxing and enjoying the fall colours.
We were very pleased with our stay at this cottage. Very nicely appointed and perfect for a large family. The view was amazing.and we really enjoyed sitting down by the water. The weather was extraordinary for Thanksgiving weekend. Owners were very responsive to our question. Hope to visit again in the future.
