Wonderful cottage in a great location. I visited at the end of October and the house was a very cozy place to stay for myself and 5 adults. Definitely looking forward to coming back.

Great views in the morning to have a coffee on the porch and welcome the new day!! And a warm crisp blazing fire to relax at the end of a long day of hiking and walking the dog.

We were a group of friends/family and stayed for two nights in October. The place is super clean with all essentials you need. Kitchen was equipped with new dish sets, utensils, cups, pots and whatever you need for a pleasant stay. Appliances were also clean and fully functioning. We enjoyed both sitting around the fire pit outside at night and canoeing/kayaking during the day. The built-in wood stove brough warmth and good vibe while we had a movie night.Check-in and check-out was very easy. Zara was quickly responding to all questions and enquiries with prompt directions. We cannot wait to come back in spring!
