The house was set up with many amenities that we didn’t get a chance to use. We did cook and the appliances worked well. Because she it was over July 4th we got this cake and lived it. We don’t take any pictures because we got a chance to meet and spend some good quality timeout the owners. Our stay was very enjoyable and the company the cottage was very enjoyable. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0ae8e695-513b-4dc7-9bc4-26e20bd2a67b-1752207831451.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Debbie M.
