We had such a wonderful stay at Michael's cottage. We brought our 21 ft. boat up from Rhode Island and it was easy to launch at the Wolfboro public boat ramp. Public trailer parking was just across the street. The ride over to the Cottage was a short 6 minute trip. Docking at the cottage was easy and we never worried about the boat on the dock. Michael's Cottage is very peaceful and comfortable. It has a rustic charm that takes you back to another time- no cars on the Island. Gorgeous views and a great spot for swimming. The large deck over the water is where we spent most of our time. It is perfect for relaxing. Swim, Eat, Sleep, repeat. The kitchen has everything you need for family meals and there is a convenient grocery store in Wolfboro, walking distance from the boat ramp (Also, we recommend a Hot Dog from the guy at the stand and checking out the Meat Market for the best meatballs!). The Wolfboro lights are magical at night and can be seen from the large picturesque window in the living room. Lots of rooms to spread out for large families. This Barndoor Island cottage is a treat and we can't wait to book our next stay.
