About the host

Host profile image
Our parents purchased 'the cottage' in 1956, and we can't fathom giving it up!

Why they chose this property

Could there be a better place for kids to spend their summers? We don't think so!

What makes this property unique

We have so many special & happy memories of spending the day in and on the water, playing board games on rainy days, & roasting marshmallows on the bonfire.
