Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Funky little cottage well fitted out inside. A block from the lake (unspoilt by McMansions) with lovely walks and sunsets. Handy to everything. I stayed 3weeks and had to buy kitchen utensils as not equipped for much cooking. One pot with no lid that fit. Likely only set up for weekenders. Gorgeous bathroom. Lovely finishing touches to skylights and windows. Laundry all new. Internet a bit off and on but perseverance got it going. Heater excellent with gas heater plus wood burning firebox. Outdoors a bit neglected but could be fabulous with some TLC. Recommend this cute little cottage and would stay again

a real treasure island
Close to local attractions. Quality utilities, in particular the kitchen and the bathroom. Ideal for two persons. My complaint, if any, is that there are only two chairs suitable for the dining table but we have three people.
