The cottage has everything you need to be comfortable and have fun. The cove is quiet and offers great fishing and wildlife viewing. I was lucky to see an otter swim by which made my day. David and Pearle are very accommodating and responsive. ##### Jean D.

The hosts were perfectly attentive, with offer of assistance during some wintery weather. Even though the weather fought to keep us indoors we did venture out to the hot tub and found it to be one of the best kept and fully featured hot tubs we've had the pleasure to use! Loved the place! ##### Pam L. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ---
