My partner and I spent three days in the cottage for our anniversary. We cooked stellar meals on the wood stove, enjoyed making coffee in the funky stove top cappuccino maker, and oh, the baths! They were positively delightful! The cottage is not suuuper clean, a bit dusty here and there, but it was not excessive, nor did it bother us. (Although my mom might have taken offensive to it!) Whisky Cottage is a charming abode, full of character and inspiring details (the pond refrigeration "system" is too cool, and the stove fed water heater is a smokin' use of resources!). This property is a fine choice for both a quiet retreat (we didn't encounter a single human), as well as a a romantic getaway (for anyone who doesn't mind stoking their own fire!).
