Lots to at cottage. The pool table video games, tv, hot tub, board games kept us busy and active. The cottage has such a rustic charm with the details in the lower level. Would definitely be the place to be especially in the summer with the open deck. Kitchen is well appointed and has everything you need. There wasn’t a coffee maker but a Kuerig machine available. Water quality is very good. Cottage owner Deb was very responsive and answered our questions very quickly. Just to note that we didn’t receive the directions To cottage within The app but Deb provided then as soon as I requested them. The details on the app show that the bedroom with bunk beds show having 2 double beds 1 single and a bunk bed as 5 beds, when there are 4 beds. One double bed is a bunk bed with single on top. The baseboards in lower level did not work but there is a fireplace. The bedroom in lower level has 3 piece bathroom inside the bedroom. When we were there there was a smell from septic tank, needed to flush toilet to reduce odour. ##### Karen A.
