My husband and I stayed at the cottage with our small dog. The surroundings were beautiful and quite peaceful. Our host was attentive to our needs, but not overbearing. We would definitely stay here again.

This is a beautiful and quiet location. It was cozy, clean, and had the simple essentials that were needed to cook, enjoy fires, and clean up after ourselves. Everything was easy to find and the host was communicative!
