We booked the cottage for 6 adults for 3 nights in August 2025. Instructions were straight forward and clear. Checking in very smooth with the owners meeting us at the property and giving us a tour of the cottage and its amenities. The inside photos online do not do justice to the place. It is full of light and beautiful views from almost every window. Despite the heatwave at the time the AC kept all rooms at a very comfortable temperature. There is an outside dining table in a space surrounded by screened windows. It became our favorite place to come together at mealtimes. The basement had a ping pong table, a pool table and a foosball game. There are also many board games and a rich library. We had some concerns with the internet, but we were able to watch streamed movies without a problem. At night memories were made around the fire pit while enjoying s’mores. The large property allowed everyone to have their preferred activity: walking the trails, paddling in the pond, or reading in the shade of a tree.The owners, Bob and Frances were a delight to deal with. They lived about 10-minute walk away. They invited us to use their heated swimming pool, which was very appreciated given the heat. On checkout day they came to see us off and we felt we’re saying goodbye to new friends. We are already talking about coming back for a longer stay.

Incredible, private location

The pictures don't do this place justice. Tucked away at the end of a long driveway in a park-like location surrounded by fields and woods, this home was the perfect location for us to relax with friends and let our children romp & play. Couldn't recommend more highly!

A Hidden Gem That Exceeded Every Expectation:From the moment I arrived at the cottage nestled in a quiet corner of the countryside, I knew I was in for an unforgettable experience. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a sense of tranquility that seemed to hang in the air. Bob, our host, was waiting for us and had thoughtfully provided clear directions, making check-in a breeze. There was a personalized welcome note on the dinning table with freshly picked flowers. This small gesture immediately made us feel valued and set the tone for the rest of my stay.The cottage itself was everything I had hoped for and more. A charming front yard and a relaxing backyard with a beautiful private pond. The interior decor struck a perfect balance between rustic charm and modern comfort. Exposed wooden beams, a fireplace, and beautiful furnishings created a cozy ambiance, while high-speed Wi-Fi, a smart TV, and a fully equipped kitchen ensured convenience.Every detail seemed carefully considered. The beds were well dressed with quality linens and pillows, promising restful nights. The bathroom was stocked with towels and toiletriesOutside, the cottage was surrounded by a beautifully maintained garden filled with flowers and trees. A private patio with comfortable seating made it easy to soak up the serenity. I spent early mornings sipping coffee to the melody of birdsong.

This property gets undersold on the website. It is bigger than it appears in pictures. The colours around the cottage were spectacular. It was very private and just amazing. Thinking of Christmas now!!
